- Therefore, the putative selection pressure for metabolic efficiency does not change the rate of nonsynonymous substitutions.
- Obviously, the higher their metabolism the greater the selection pressure they would have exerted on the contemporary vegetation.
- Such selection pressure may have different origins.
- In selection schemes improvements can be larger, but it depends on the structure of the population, the selection pressure, and the restriction on inbreeding imposed.
