However, both Clade-A and -B AHLs later experienced rapid expansion in angiosperms, which may be responsible for their large numbers in extant angiosperm species.

Nevertheless, the relatively rapid rate of neutral evolution for the zebra finch or G. magnirostris lineages would be consistent with historic generation times, over the last 25 million years, for their ancestral species being much shorter than for extant ones.

Coalescent effective population size estimates were similar for both extant species and larger than that estimated for their most recent common ancestor.
