Mitogenomic evaluation of the historical biogeography of cichlids toward reliable dating of teleostean divergences

<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>Recent advances in DNA sequencing and computation offer the opportunity for reliable estimates of divergence times between organisms based on molecular data. Bayesian estimations of divergence times that do not assume the molecular c...
