Detection of lineage-specific evolutionary changes among primate species

Mihaela Pertea, Geo M Pertea, Steven L Salzberg BMC Bioinformatics 2011, 12:274 (4 July 2011)

DivE (Divergence by Evolution), a new methodology for predicting both positive and negative selection in noncoding DNA, is particularly well-suited to detecting lineage-specific selection in large genomes as demonstrated using primate species
