Adaptive Patterns of Mitogenome Evolution Are Associated with the Loss of Shell Scutes in Turtles

The mitochondrial genome encodes several protein components of the oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS) pathway and is critical for aerobic respiration. These proteins have evolved adaptively in many taxa, but linking molecular-level patterns with higher-level attributes (e.g., morphology, physiology)...
