    • Abstract:
      Presents a study which examined the patterns of nucleotide substitution, in the mitochondrial protein coding genes of vertebrates. Use of maximum likelihood methods to study differences in substitution rates among nucleotides and nucleotide sites; Frequency of nucleotide G negatively correlated with evolutionary rates of genes.
