MEGA6: Molecular Evolutionary Genetics Analysis Version 6.0

TL;DR: An advanced version of the Molecular Evolutionary Genetics Analysis software, which currently contains facilities for building sequence alignments, inferring phylogenetic histories, and conducting molecular evolutionary analysis, is released, which enables the inference of timetrees, as it implements the RelTime method for estimating divergence times for all branching points in a phylogeny.

Dating of the human-ape splitting by a molecular clock of mitochondrial DNA.

TL;DR: A new statistical method for estimating divergence dates of species from DNA sequence data by a molecular clock approach is developed, and this dating may pose a problem for the widely believed hypothesis that the bipedal creatureAustralopithecus afarensis, which lived some 3.7 million years ago, was ancestral to man and evolved after the human-ape splitting.

MUSCLE: a multiple sequence alignment method with reduced time and space complexity

TL;DR: MUSCLE offers a range of options that provide improved speed and / or alignment accuracy compared with currently available programs, and a new option, MUSCLE-fast, designed for high-throughput applications.

Preservation of Duplicate Genes by Complementary, Degenerative Mutations

TL;DR: Focusing on the regulatory complexity of eukaryotic genes, it is shown how complementary degenerative mutations in different regulatory elements of duplicated genes can facilitate the preservation of both duplicates, thereby increasing long-term opportunities for the evolution of new gene functions.
