From: The evolutionary trajectory of mitochondrial carrier family during metazoan evolution
Analysis of the synchronization between the molecular evolution of MCF and macroevolution. (A) The molecular clock estimation of metazoan evolution based on six tandem concatenated TR sequence (see methods). The phylogenetic tree was inferred by the neighbor-joining method [43] (bootstrap = 1000, JTT matrix). (B) The linear regression of diversification time estimates between the local clock estimation and that inferred from the fossil and molecular data [52, 53]. The coefficient of correlation is 0.99 (p < 0.001).
