A recent hypothesis suggests that resting metabolic rate, measured as energy expended per unit body mass per unit time, might be implicated in the rate of nucleotide substitution in animals. Using relative rate tests on DNA-DNA hybridization data from birds, we show that generation time is significa

The small subunit ribosomal DNA (ssu rDNA) of 13 isopods was sequenced. The entire length of the ribosomal gene is unusually long, resulting from the presence of five expansion elements accounting for more than 40% of the gene. We found that in terrestrial isopods the length of the ssu rDNA ranges f
