Ribosomal RNA gene diversity, effective population size, and evolutionary longevity in asexual glomeromycota.

Evolution; international journal of organic evolution - 1 Jan 2013

Abstract excerpt

Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (phylum Glomeromycota) are among the oldest and most successful symbionts of land plants. With no evidence of sexual reproduction, their evolutionary success is inconsistent with the prediction that asexual taxa are vulnerable to extinction due to accumulation of deleterious mutations. To explore why Glomeromycota defy this prediction, we studied ribosomal RNA (rRNA) gene evolution in...
