Transcription-related mutations and GC content drive variation in nucleotide substitution rates across the genomes of <it>Arabidopsis thaliana </it>and <it>Arabidopsis lyrata</it>
<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>There has been remarkably little study of nucleotide substitution rate variation among plant nuclear genes, in part because orthology is difficult to establish. Orthology is even more problematic for intergenic regions of plant nucle...
