Rapid rate of control-region evolution in Pacific butterflyfishes (Chaetodontidae).

Journal of molecular evolution - 1 Nov 1997

McMillan W O, Palumbi S R

Abstract excerpt

Sequence differences in the tRNA-proline (tRNApro) end of the mitochondrial control-region of three species of Pacific butterflyfishes accumulated 33-43 times more rapidly than did changes within the mitochondrial cytochrome b gene (cytb). Rapid evolution in this region was accompanied by strong transition/transversion bias and large variation in the probability of a DNA substitution among sites. These...
