Discover LudwigThe phrase "average evolutionary rate" is correct and usable in written English.
It can be used in discussions related to biology, evolution, or genetics when referring to the typical speed at which evolutionary changes occur in a species or group.
Example: "The average evolutionary rate of this species suggests that it has adapted quickly to its changing environment."
Alternatives: "typical evolutionary rate" or "mean evolutionary rate".

This anomaly occurs because the more recent the divergence of any two species, the more likely it is that the changes observed will depart from the average evolutionary rate.
Although this is not the fragment proposed as a standard barcode (5), our results can be generalized because the average evolutionary rate of both cox1 fragments is similar.
We considered each protein in turn as the 'focal' protein, and calculated the average evolutionary rate across its direct network neighbours.
If we assume it is 75 years then the average evolutionary rate of the potyvirus populations is 1.173×10−4 ns/s/yr and hence the potyvirus radiation occurred 6353 YBP.
