  • Our results suggest that both factors contribute to non-significant exon-level K a /K s tests between species in the genus Drosophila . The fact that the most closely related species, D. erecta , fails the highest proportion of gene-and exon-level K a /K s tests indicates that insufficient divergence time contributes to non-significant comparisons.

  • To increase the amount of data in this training set ( B 2 ) without biasing sample sizes, we pooled sequences from all species in the zygomycetes with all available chytridiomycete coding sequences, and compared this training set with a set from a single plant genus, Medicago ( A 2 ). We chose this option, rather than including an arbitrary subset of sequences from the ascomycetes and basidiomycetes, because zygomycetes and chytridiomycetes have diverged from their common ancestor less recently than the ascomycetes and basidiomycetes, based on 18S ribosomal RNA sequence data [ 34].

  • therefore inflates estimates of interspecific distances within the genus.

  • This history of research has culminated in a rich understanding of the pattern and process of molecular evolution in the genus Drosophila [ 7].

Artemisia of antiquity was divided into three genera ( Artemisia, Absinthium, and Abrotanum ) by Tournefort [ 40 ] . However, the concept of a more inclusive genus was resurrected by Linnaeus [ 41 ] , hereinafter, referred to as Artemisia s.l . Besser [ 42 ] and de Candolle [ 43 ] recognized four sections within Artemisia s.l.
