Gene duplication and evolution in recurring polyploidization–diploidization cycles in plants
Genome Biology, 2019 Background The sharp increase of plant genome and transcriptome data provide valuable resources to investigate evolutionary consequences of gene duplication in a range of taxa, and unravel common principles underlying duplicate gene retention. Results We

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2018 Pear is an important fruit crop of the Rosaceae family and has experienced two rounds of ancient whole-genome duplications (WGDs). However, whether different types of gene duplications evolved differently after duplication remains unclear in the pear ...

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 2021 Significance Gene duplication is a major source of evolutionary innovation and is associated with the increases in biological complexity and adaptive radiation. Termites are model social organisms characterized by a sophisticated caste system.

Gene Duplication and Gene Fusion Are Important Drivers of Tumourigenesis during Cancer Evolution
Genes, 2021 Chromosomal rearrangement and genome instability are common features of cancer cells in human. Consequently, gene duplication and gene fusion events are frequently observed in human malignancies and many of the products of these events are pathogenic ...

Expression attenuation as a mechanism of robustness against gene duplication
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 2021 Significance Many studies have focused on the mechanisms of long-term retention of gene duplicates, such as the gain of functions or reciprocal losses.

Expectations of Duplicate Gene Retention Under the Gene Duplicability Hypothesis
BMC Ecology and Evolution, 2023 Abstract Background Gene duplication is an important process in evolution. What causes some genes to be retained after duplication and others to be lost is a process not well understood. The most prevalent theory is the gene duplicability hypothesis, that something about the function and number of interacting partners (number of subunits of ...

Phylogenetic analysis reveals an ancient gene duplication as the origin of the MdtABC efflux pump. [PDF]
, 2020 The efflux pumps from the Resistance-Nodulation-Division family, RND, are main contributors to intrinsic antibiotic resistance in Gram-negative bacteria. Among this family, the MdtABC pump is unusual by having two inner membrane components.

Phylogenomics: gene duplication, unrecognized paralogy and outgroup choice. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2009 Comparative genomics has revealed the ubiquity of gene and genome duplication and subsequent gene loss. In the case of gene duplication and subsequent loss, gene trees can differ from species trees, thus frequent gene duplication poses a challenge for ...
