Phylogenetic utility of the mitochondrial COI (cytochrome oxidase subunit I) and nuclear Gpdh (glycerol-3-phosphate dehydrogenase) genes was studied in the Drosophila melanogaster species group. The rate of substitution was higher in the COI gene than in the Gpdh gene. In addition, multiple substitu
