Episodic positive selection at mitochondrial genome in an introduced biological control agent.

Mitochondrion - 1 May 2016

Abstract excerpt

Artificial introduction in classical biological control provides a unique opportunity to understand mitochondrial evolution driving adaptation to novel environments. We studied mitochondrial genomes of a world-wide introduced agent, Cryptolaemus montrouzieri. We detected positive selection in complex I genes (ND5 and ND4) against a background of widespread negative selection. We further detected significant...
