Statistical methods for estimating the branching order and the branching dates from DNA sequence data, taking into account of the rate variation among lineages, are reviewed. An application of the methods to data from primates suggests that chimpanzee is the closest relative of man, and further suggests that these two species diverged about 4-5 million years ago.
综述了考虑谱系间速率变化，从DNA序列数据估计分支顺序和分支日期的统计方法。将这些方法应用于灵长类数据表明黑猩猩是人类最亲近的亲属，并且进一步表明这两个物种大约在400万至500万年前分化。
