Microsatellite evolutionary rate and pattern in Schistocerca gregaria inferred from direct observation of germline mutations.

Molecular ecology - 1 Dec 2015

Chapuis M-P, Plantamp C, Streiff R, Blondin L, Piou C

Abstract excerpt

Unravelling variation among taxonomic orders regarding the rate of evolution in microsatellites is crucial for evolutionary biology and population genetics research. The mean mutation rate of microsatellites tends to be lower in arthropods than in vertebrates, but data are scarce and mostly concern accumulation of mutations in model species. Based on parent-offspring segregations and a hierarchical Bayesian...
