The general time reversible model (GTR) is presently the most popular model
used in phylogentic studies. However, GTR has an undesirable mathematical
property that is potentially of significant concern. It is the purpose of this
article to give examples that demonstrate why this deficit may pose a problem
for phylogenetic analysis and interpretation.
