Searching for convergent evolution in manganese superoxidase dismutase using hydrophobic cluster analysis
There are numerous examples of convergent evolution in nature. Major ecological adaptations such as flight, loss of limbs in vertebrates, pesticide resistance, adaptation to a parasitic way of life, etc., have all evolved more than once, as seen by their analogous functions in separate taxa. But wha...
