Abstract We have constructed a phylogenetic tree for eleven species by comparing their tRNA sequences. The tree suggests that prokaryotes diverged very early before the emergence of animals. The fact that H. volcano, an archaebacterium, clusters with eukaryotes implied that eukaryotes did not diverge directly from their common ancestor with eubacteria. The branching order of phage T_4 and phage T_5 indicates that they have diverged separately from their hosts and they might have evolved independently. A correlation between nucleotide substitution in tRNAs and paleontological record was observed. We verified that our phylogenetic tree fits very well with traditional ones very well by imposing the molecular clock on the tree.
