Isolation of Hox Cluster Genes from Insects Reveals an Accelerated Sequence Evolution Rate

Among gene families it is the Hox genes and among metazoan animals it is the insects (Hexapoda) that have attracted particular attention for studying the evolution of development. Surprisingly though, no Hox genes have been isolated from 26 out of 35 insect orders yet, and the existing sequences der...
