Proposed model for fur evolution. A. Phylogenetic tree of 16S nucleotide sequences generated by NJ analysis. The numbers beside nodes are the percentages of bootstrap values calculated for 10000 replicates: only those above 50% are represented. Evolutionary events are indicated by a short coloured line: blue for duplications and red for losses. In front of the species name, the number of homologues belonging to each one of the groups A, B, C, D and E is indicated. B. Schematic model of fur evolution. The losses and duplications referred on 2A are here located in terms of homologues gain and lost.
