Pattern and timing of evolutionary divergences among hominoids based on analyses of complete mtDNAs.

Journal of molecular evolution - 1 Dec 1996

Arnason U, Gullberg A, Janke A, Xu X

Abstract excerpt

We have examined and dated primate divergences by applying a newly established molecular/ paleontological reference, the evolutionary separation between artiodactyls and cetaceans anchored at 60 million years before present (MYBP). Owing to the morphological transformations coinciding with the tr...
