An analysis of the phylogeny of mutualistic and free-living fungi, as well as the rates of nucleotide substitutions in selected ribosomal RNA regions, was conducted with a view to determining how coevolution can drive changes in the heritable traits of a species. Which of the following is NOT the expected outcome of the study?
A. There was a faster rate of molecular evolution occuring among free-living fungal species compared to lichens.
B. Fungi coevolving with algae in lichens featured higher rates of nucleotide substitutions.
C. Higher rates of nucleotide substitution in mutualistic fungi were widespread across many sections of the genome.
D. The transition to mutualism accelerated the rate of molecular evolution for fungal species.
