Type Excerpt DOI
Mutation Description "Also, in B. acutorostrata and B. bonaerensis the presence of a single mutation in an acceptor splice site (AG>CT) is insufficient to determine the coding status of Awat2 without further transcriptomic evidence." 10.1093/molbev/msz068
Timing of Loss "In contrast, the mutational events identified in Awat2 did not allow definite validation of pseudogenization in Cetacea." 10.1093/molbev/msz068
