EVOLUTION OF OXIDATIVE METABOLISM IN FISHES

EVOLUTION OF OXIDATIVE METABOLISM IN FISHES

My study investigated the evolution of oxidative metabolism in fishes. While intense selection for, or against, non-synonymous point mutations in coding sequence drives the evolution of mitochondrial OXPHOS genes, genome-specific mechanisms such as gene duplication events can play major roles in the...
