13. High guanine-cytosine content is not an adaptation to high temperature: a comparative analysis amongst prokaryotes.
The causes of the variation between genomes in their guanine (G) and cytosine (C) content is one of the central issues in evolutionary genomics. The thermal adaptation hypothesis conjectures that, as G:C pairs in DNA are more thermally stable than adenonine:thymine pairs, high GC content may he a selective response to high temperature. A compilation of data
