Molecular decay of enamel matrix protein genes in turtles and other edentulous amniotes
BACKGROUND: Secondary edentulism (toothlessness) has evolved on multiple occasions in amniotes including several mammalian lineages (pangolins, anteaters, baleen whales), birds, and turtles. All edentulous amniote clades have evolved from ancestors with enamel-capped teeth. Previous studies have doc...
