Table 1 Time of divergence

From: Circumpolar phylogeography of the northern pike (Esox lucius) and its relationship to the Amur pike (E. reichertii)

Comparison τ Time of divergence * Myr P T Time of divergence ** Myr
E. reichertii - E. lucius 103 4.55 0.53 6.7 4.73
B - F 5.9 0.26 0.32   
B - E 5.1 0.22 0.53   
E - F 4.1 0.18 0.28   
  1. Estimated time of divergence of E. reichertii and E. lucius, and clades of E. lucius, based on cyt b data and the corresponding percentile value (P), using a mutation rate (μ) of 1.133E-05 substitutions per year. B, E and F denote the E. lucius cyt b mt DNA lineages.
  2. *τ = 2 μ [62], **T = t1/Nef[63].
