Therevidae (stilleto flies) are a little-known family of asiloid brachyceran Diptera (Insecta). Separate and combined phylogenetic analyses of 1200 bases of the 28S ribosomal DNA and 1100 bases of elongation factor-1␣ were used to infer phylogenetic relationships within the family. The position of t

The translation elongation factor EF-1 alpha appears to play a major role in the control of cell proliferation and ageing in higher eukaryotes. Here we report the cloning of the TEF1 gene encoding the elongation factor 1 alpha of the dimorphic yeast Arxula adeninivorans Ls3. The gene is localized on
In order to judge whether or not Polychaeta is a paraphyletic group, I determined almost the entire amino acid sequence of elongation factor-1 alpha from thirteen polychaetes, two oligochaetes, two hirudineans, two vestimentiferans, and two molluscs. Phylogenetic analysis by the neighbor-joining (NJ
