Evolutionary relationships among the eukaryotic crown taxa taking into account site-to-site rate variation in 18S rRNA.

Journal of molecular evolution - 1 Dec 1997

Van de Peer Y, De Wachter R

Abstract excerpt

In this study we constructed a bootstrapped distance tree of 500 small subunit ribosomal RNA sequences from organisms belonging to the so-called crown of eukaryote evolution. Taking into account the substitution rate of the individual nucleotides of the rRNA sequence alignment, our results suggest that (1) animals, true fungi, and choanoflagellates share a common origin: The branch joining these taxa is highly...
