Low Base-Substitution Mutation Rate in the Germline Genome of the Ciliate Tetrahymena thermophila

Mutation is the ultimate source of all genetic variation and is, therefore, central to evolutionary change. Previous work on Paramecium tetraurelia found an unusually low germline base-substitution mutation rate in this ciliate. Here, we tested the generality of this result among ciliates using Tetr...
