Evolutionary rates of commonly used nuclear and organelle markers of Arabidopsis relatives (Brassicaceae).

Abstract excerpt

Recovering the genetic divergence between species is one of the major interests in the evolutionary biology. It requires accurate estimation of the neutral substitution rates. Arabidopsis thaliana, the first whole-genome sequenced plant, and its out-crossing relatives provide an ideal model for examining the split between sister species. In the study, rates of molecular evolution at markers frequently used for...
