A divergence rate of approximately 2 % has been calculated.
2.
When the proportion of mutations that are neutral is constant, so is the divergence rate between populations.
3.
The assumed divergence rate 1.6 % point mutations per Ma is appropriate for a long-lived passerine, but Sierra Nevada which cut off most gene flow between the two North American populations.
4.
An unrooted tree can always be produced from a rooted tree, but a root cannot usually be placed on an unrooted tree without additional data on divergence rates, such as the assumption of the molecular clock hypothesis.
5.
The database of orthologs presents available protein descriptors, together with Gene Ontology and InterPro attributes, which serve to provide general descriptive annotations of the orthologous groups, and facilitate comprehensive orthology database querying . "'OrthoDB "'also provides computed evolutionary traits of orthologs, such as gene duplicability and loss profiles, divergence rates, sibling groups, and gene intron-exon architectures.

All naturally occurring " Maccullochella " cod in east coast drainages ultimately originate from Murray cod, " Maccullochella peelii " that entered an east coast river system, likely the Clarence, via a natural river capture event somewhere between 0.62 and 1.62 million years ago ( mean estimate 1.1 million years ago ), as estimated by DNA divergence rates.
