ANÁLISIS COMPARATIVO DEL GENOMA MITOCONDRIAL EN GASTRÓPODOS
Acta Biológica Colombiana, 2012 Los genomas mitocondriales en el grupo Gastrópoda muestran altas tasas de variación entre ellos en cuanto a la organización de sus genomas lo que lo convierte en un excelente grupo modelo para el estudio de la evolución del genoma mitocondrial.
