The evolution of gene duplicates in angiosperms and the impact of protein-protein interactions and the mechanism of duplication [PDF]
, 2019 Gene duplicates, generated through either whole genome duplication (WGD) or small-scale duplication (SSD), are prominent in angiosperms and are believed to play an important role in adaptation and in generating evolutionary novelty.

Altered patterns of gene duplication and differential gene gain and loss in fungal pathogens
BMC Genomics, 2008 Background Duplication, followed by fixation or random loss of novel genes, contributes to genome evolution. Particular outcomes of duplication events are possibly associated with pathogenic life histories in fungi.

Gene duplication in an African cichlid adaptive radiation [PDF]
, 2014 Background Gene duplication is a source of evolutionary innovation and can contribute to the divergence of lineages; however, the relative importance of this process remains to be determined.

Genome duplication and gene loss affect the evolution of heat shock transcription factor genes in legumes. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2014 Whole-genome duplication events (polyploidy events) and gene loss events have played important roles in the evolution of legumes. Here we show that the vast majority of Hsf gene duplications resulted from whole genome duplication events rather than ...

Distinguish between Duplication of Essential Genes and Duplication of Dispensable Genes [PDF]
, 2020 AbstractWhen a dispensable gene is duplicated (ancestral dispensability), genetic buffering and duplicate compensation together maintain the gene dispensability, whereas duplicate compensation is the only mechanism when an essential gene is duplicated (ancestral essentiality).

Comparative Genomics Reveals Gene Duplication and Evolution in 26 Aurantioideae Species
HorticulturaeGene duplication, as a prevalent phenomenon in the tree of life, provides a potential substrate for evolution. However, its role in the Aurantioideae remains unclear.

Evolution of Gene Duplication in Plants [PDF]
Plant Physiology, 2016 Ancient duplication events and a high rate of retention of extant pairs of duplicate genes have contributed to an abundance of duplicate genes in plant genomes. These duplicates have contributed to the evolution of novel functions, such as the production of floral structures, induction of disease resistance, and adaptation to stress.

Hierarchy and Feedback in the Evolution of the E. coli Transcription Network [PDF]
, 2007 The E.coli transcription network has an essentially feedforward structure, with, however, abundant feedback at the level of self-regulations. Here, we investigate how these properties emerged during evolution.
