Assessing the Relative Rate of (Mitochondrial) Genomic Change
I report a framework for assessing whether one mitochondrial genome is significantly more rearranged than another.

Zusammenfassung: | I report a framework for assessing whether one mitochondrial genome is significantly more rearranged than another. This relative rate of gene rearrangement test (RGR) behaves according to expectation, distinguishing between highly rearranged and mildly rearranged insect mitochondrial genomes. It may be more broadly applied to assess the relative rate of nuclear gene rearrangement. |
