Statements

Type Excerpt DOI
Mutation Description "We also found ORF-disrupting mutations in Pkd2l1 and in two bitter taste receptor genes (Tas2r3 and Tas2r60) in Hippopotamidae (Additional file 3: Figures S1-S11)." 10.1186/s12862-014-0218-8
Timing of Loss "For the three pseudogenized Tas2rs of Hippopotamidae, no shared ORF-disrupting mutation was found between cetaceans and Hippopotamidae, suggesting independent pseudogenization events in cetaceans and Hippopotamidae." 10.1186/s12862-014-0218-8
Other "SEE "Additional file 3: Figures S1-S11. Indels and premature stop codons in Pkdl21, Tas1r1, Tas1r2, Tas2r1-3, Tas2r5, Tas2r16, Tas2r38-39, and Tas2r60." 10.1186/s12862-014-0218-8
