Molecular evolutionary processes and conflicting gene trees: the hominoid case.

American journal of physical anthropology - 1 May 1994

Ruvolo M

Abstract excerpt

Molecular evolutionary processes modify DNA over time, creating both newly derived substitutions shared by related descendant lineages (phylogenetic signal) and "false" similarities which confound phylogenetic reconstruction (homoplasy). However, some types of DNA regions, for example those containing tandem duplicate repeats, are preferentially subject to homoplasy-inducing processes such as sporadically...
