DNA sequence support for a close phylogenetic relationship between some storks and New World vultures.

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America - 24 May 1994

Avise J C, Nelson W S, Sibley C G

Abstract excerpt

Nucleotide sequences from the mitochondrial cytochrome b gene were used to address a controversial suggestion that New World vultures are related more closely to storks than to Old World vultures. Phylogenetic analyses of 1-kb sequences from 18 relevant avian species indicate that the similaritie...
