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.

Almost all human genes resulted from ancient duplication [PDF]
, 2006 Results of protein sequence comparison at open criterion show a very large number of relationships that have, up to now, gone unreported. The relationships suggest many ancient events of gene duplication. It is well known that gene duplication has been a

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 ...

STRIDE: Species Tree Root Inference from Gene Duplication Events
bioRxiv, 2017 The correct interpretation of a phylogenetic tree is dependent on it being correctly rooted. A gene duplication event at the base of a clade of species is synapamorphic, and thus excludes the root of the species tree from that clade. We present STRIDE, a

Genes, 2020 Gene duplication is an important evolutionary mechanism allowing to provide new genetic material and thus opportunities to acquire new gene functions for an organism, with major implications such as speciation events. Various processes are known to allow

Gene duplication, population genomics, and species-level differentiation within a tropical mountain shrub. [PDF]
, 2014 Gene duplication leads to paralogy, which complicates the de novo assembly of genotyping-by-sequencing (GBS) data. The issue of paralogous genes is exacerbated in plants, because they are particularly prone to gene duplication events.

Resolving noise–control conflict by gene duplication
bioRxiv, 2019 Gene duplication promotes adaptive evolution in two principle ways: allowing one duplicate to evolve a new function and resolving adaptive conflicts by splitting ancestral functions between the duplicates.

Tandem duplications lead to novel expression patterns through exon shuffling in Drosophila yakuba. [PDF]
PLoS Genetics, 2017 One common hypothesis to explain the impacts of tandem duplications is that whole gene duplications commonly produce additive changes in gene expression due to copy number changes.

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.

Glyphosate Resistance and EPSPS Gene Duplication: Convergent Evolution in Multiple Plant Species.
Journal of Heredity, 2018 One of the increasingly widespread mechanisms of resistance to the herbicide glyphosate is copy number variation (CNV) of the 5-enolpyruvylshikimate-3-phosphate synthase (EPSPS) gene.
