A comparison of evolutionary relatedness between GALP and galanin. A) an example of the sequence alignment among galanin (top) and GALP (bottom) that demonstrates the higher degree of nucleotide substitution in GALP compared to galanin. Different colors in a column indicate nucleotide changes. B) Phylogenetic trees for galanin (black) and GALP (blue) from PAUP analyses of mean pairwise distances among aligned nucleotides. The numbers next to each arm indicate total number of changes to produce that clade. C). Non-parametric analyses revealed that GALP had a significantly (p < 0.05) higher PAUP value, indicating a greater rate of nucleotide substitutions compared to galanin.
