Multiple independent transpositions of mitochondrial DNA control region sequences to the nucleus.

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America - 24 Dec 1996

Sorenson M D, Fleischer R C

Abstract excerpt

Transpositions of mtDNA sequences to the nuclear genome have been documented in a wide variety of individual taxa, but little is known about their taxonomic frequency or patterns of variation. We provide evidence of nuclear sequences homologous to the mtDNA control region in seven species of diving ducks (tribe Aythyini). Phylogenetic analysis places each nuclear sequence as a close relative of the mtDNA...
