"We could not reject the null hypothesis that the molecular
clock describes the evolution of these sequences. The generalized
likeli-
hood-ratio statistic was 343.61, which, assuming the asymptotic c2
(345)
distribution as valid, yields a p value of 0.43 under the clock
hypothesis.
The maximum likelihood estimates of k and a under the clock model were
35.14 6 4.99 and 0.12 6 0.01, respectively."
JTEM sputters and spits out: "AND we're all still waiting for your
defense
of that idiotic "Molecular clock."
Meanwhile Dr. Brian Kemp (real scientist) on the cutting edge of
genetic research
(and involved in one of the top 100 stories in science for 2007)
uses
the molecular clock as a tool to help determin the how and when of
the
peopling of the Americas.
