Identification and analysis of evolutionary selection pressures acting at the molecular level in five forkhead subfamilies

BACKGROUND: Members of the forkhead gene family act as transcription regulators in biological processes including development and metabolism. The evolution of forkhead genes has not been widely examined and selection pressures at the molecular level influencing subfamily evolution and differentiatio...
