Proc Biol Sci 275:1695-701. 2008..For humans, this means we share a higher proportion of pathogens with the great apes, including chimpanzees and gorillas, because these species are our closest relatives...- Colloquium paper: phylogenetic trees and the future of mammalian biodiversityT Jonathan Davies

Department of Biology, University of Virginia, Charlottesville 22904, USA
Evolution 60:476-83. 2006..These results may be explained by the idea that processes that affect general evolutionary rates, such as body size, may also be expected to influence rates of morphological change... - Environment, area, and diversification in the species-rich flowering plant family IridaceaeT Jonathan Davies
