Fast sequence evolution of Hox and Hox-derived genes in the genus Drosophila

BACKGROUND: It is expected that genes that are expressed early in development and have a complex expression pattern are under strong purifying selection and thus evolve slowly. Hox genes fulfill these criteria and thus, should have a low evolutionary rate. However, some observations point to a compl...
