Journal ArticleDOI

Toward a Phylogenetic Classification of Primates Based on DNA Evidence Complemented by Fossil Evidence

TL;DR: A provisional primate classification based on DNA evidence and the time scale provided by fossils and the model of local molecular clocks has all named taxa represent clades and assigns the same taxonomic rank to those clades of roughly equivalent age.
Journal ArticleDOI

The cytochrome b gene as a phylogenetic marker: the limits of resolution for analyzing relationships among cichlid fishes.

TL;DR: Despite some limitations of cyt-b as a phylogenetic marker, this gene either alone or in combination with other data sets yields a tree that is in agreement with the well-established phylogeny of cichlid fish.
Journal ArticleDOI

Mitochondrial DNA phylogeny of the family cichlidae : monophyly and fast molecular evolution of the neotropical assemblage

TL;DR: The cichlid phylogeny suggests drift-vicariance events, consistent with the fragmentation of Gondwana, to explain current biogeographic distributions and relative rate tests suggest that Neotropical cICHlids have experienced accelerated rates of molecular evolution.
Journal ArticleDOI

Phylogeny and Evolution of Selected Primates as Determined by Sequences of the ε-Globin Locus and 5′ Flanking Regions

TL;DR: Results support the hypothesis that nonhuman primates of Madagascar descended from a single lineage, as local molecular clock calculations indicate that the divergence of lemuroid and lorisoid lineages, and the earliest diversification of leMuroids, occurred during the Eocene.
