The pairwise distance among all the Suzhou CA10 strains ranged in divergence from 0.000 to 0.020, suggesting that the phylogenetic characteristics of the CA10 strains in Suzhou were not as divergent as those of the CA6 strains.
Besides the obvious extreme values for divergence stated above, there is a more subtle but clearly visible decline in divergence from the first few positions towards the end of the reads, in general, divergence is higher for early position's distributions than for later ones.
These findings indicate that FAM50B originated in Therians after divergence from Prototherians via retrotransposition of a gene on the X chromosome.
The phylogenetic tree indicates that this mutation occurred in the Rma lineage after divergence from the symbionts of C. phaseoliformis and C. fossajaponica [arrowhead (1) in Figure 1].
Its protein sequences, as well as the number and position of introns in its genome, show lower divergence from those of vertebrates than that of other protostomes (Raible et al. 2005).
This approach represents a substantial divergence from most of the others in that a uniform data set is not used for each country.
But the British government, in an unusual divergence from the rest of Europe on such issues, sided with Pakistan and Turkey.
We created five different such single paths (five different mutants) in order to investigate the divergence from the native of an ensemble of evolutionary paths.
The lineage of Portiera from B. tabaci was excluded from the analysis because the high number of rearrangements occurred in this strain after its divergence from Portiera of Trialeurodes vaporariorum (Sloan and Moran 2013).
It may well be that "living fossils" have evolved greatly in biochemistry, physiology, or behavior (or just in non-coding DNA, with the ceaseless ticking of the molecular clock), even if such changes are not apparent in divergence of form from specimens in the fossil record.
In order of divergence from basal to crown, the AR-PE clade was followed by the EA, the NW, and the NE-CO clades.
