Relative rates of nucleotide substitution in the chloroplast genome.

Molecular phylogenetics and evolution - 1 Jun 1993

Gaut B S, Muse S V, Clegg M T

Abstract excerpt

Coding sequences from maize, rice, tobacco, and liverwort chloroplasts are aligned and subjected to relative rate tests. Results of rate tests suggest that coding sequences from maize and rice are evolving with homogeneous rates of nucleotide substitution while coding sequences from the grass lineages (i.e., maize and rice) are evolving at a faster rate than coding sequences from the tobacco chloroplast. Rate...
