Phylogenetic Relationships and Divergence Times in Rodents Based on Both Genes and Fossils
Molecular and paleontological approaches have produced extremely different estimates for divergence times among orders of placental mammals and within rodents with molecular studies suggesting a much older date than fossils. We evaluated the conflict between the fossil record and molecular data a...
