As species tree S, we chose a phylogeny covering 336 genomes of Bacteria and Archaea recently inferred by Abby et al. [ 30].
Additionally, we estimated the number of mitochondrial clusters based on a novel single-locus delimitation method and the time of their divergence, using recently inferred evolutionary rates for lacertid species.
Pick your epithet: Pope Francis may either be hypocritical 'wall builder', as one trumpeting jingo recently inferred, or else 'great bridge builder' as implied by an ancient Roman attribution.
Our interspecific COI rates are considerably slower than recently inferred intraspecific rates for populations of the related atyid (Halocaridina, ∼20% per million years [47]).
Because the Plestiodon fossil record, and the record of fossil skinks in general, are extremely poor, we used three fossil calibration age prior distributions from non-scincid fossil taxa whose phylogenetic placement in the squamate tree was recently inferred [40].
This mutation rate is comparable to mutation rates estimated for Buchnera aphidicola[ 20] and Helicobacter pylori[ 21], but about twice as fast as recently inferred for S. Agona [ 22].
Furthermore, expression of CYCD3 genes in the vascular tissue of roots undergoing primary growth was recently inferred (Collins et al., 2015) from microarray data obtained from fluorescently activated cell-sorted primary root cells (Brady et al., 2007).
In contrast, a very different perspective on the phylogeny of birds suggesting a very different biogeographic history and classification was recently inferred from analysis of a single nuclear locus.
The fprA gene encodes A-type flavoprotein, a protein recently inferred to play a role in the detoxification of nitric oxide and/or oxygen in E. histolytica and was suggested to derive from a relatively recent LGT event from a prokaryotic donor [ 5].
To date, that of a human connexin26 gap junction channel is the only structure resolved by X-ray diffraction (at 3.5 Å resolution) [ 167], whereas the structure of connexin30 channels has been recently inferred by a combination of homology modeling and molecular dynamics [ 168].
