Positive selection over the mitochondrial genome and its role in the diversification of gentoo penguins in response to adaptation in isolation

HIGHLIGHTS

  • who: D. Noll from the Departamento de EcosistemasUniversidad Católica de have published the research: Positive selection over the mitochondrial genome and its role in the diversification of gentoo penguins in response to adaptation in isolation, in the Journal: Scientific Reports Scientific Reports
  • how: The authors implemented different methods to identify putative codons under selection in gentoo penguin mitochondrial genes. To test for the presence of positive selection in the foreground branch the authors compared the alternative model to its respective null model (where ω2 is fixed assuming neutral evolution i.e. ω2=1) and . . .
