Genetic evolutionary rates of the mitochondrial encoded genes of the Phaeophyceae.

<p>(a) Summary of the characteristics of individual genes by dN bin and IQR bin. Bins highlighted are potential candidate genes for phylogenies and discrimination of orders or families. Underlined genes are 900 bp or more. (b) Maximum likelihood phylogeny reconstructed from the concatenation of genes with a size larger than 300 amino acids. Numbers near the nodes represent the number of single gene trees that support the node.
