Combinatorics of Genome Rearrangements [PDF]
, 2009 A comprehensive survey of a rapidly expanding field of combinatorial optimization, mathematically oriented but offering biological explanations when required. From one cell to another, from one individual to another, and from one species to another, the content of DNA molecules is often similar.

Programmed genome rearrangements in ciliates [PDF]
Cellular and Molecular Life Sciences, 2020 AbstractCiliates are a highly divergent group of unicellular eukaryotes with separate somatic and germline genomes found in distinct dimorphic nuclei. This characteristic feature is tightly linked to extremely laborious developmentally regulated genome rearrangements in the development of a new somatic genome/nuclei following sex.

Comparative gene mapping in Arabidopsis lyrata chromosomes 6 and 7 and A thaliana chromosome IV: evolutionary history, rearrangements and local recombination rates [PDF]
, 2006 We have increased the density of genetic markers on the Arabidopsis lyrata chromosomes AL6 and AL7 corresponding to the A. thaliana chromosome IV, in order to determine chromosome rearrangements between these two species, and to compare recombination ...

Seven-fluorochrome mouse M-FISH for high-resolution analysis of interchromosomal rearrangements [PDF]
, 2003 The mouse has evolved to be the primary mammalian genetic model organism. Important applications include the modeling of human cancer and cloning experiments. In both settings, a detailed analysis of the mouse genome is essential.

Structural variation in the chicken genome identified by paired-end next-generation DNA sequencing of reduced representation libraries [PDF]
, 2011 Background Variation within individual genomes ranges from single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) to kilobase, and even megabase, sized structural variants (SVs), such as deletions, insertions, inversions, and more complex rearrangements.

Competitive repair by naturally dispersed repetitive DNA during non-allelic homologous recombination. [PDF]
PLoS Genetics, 2010 Genome rearrangements often result from non-allelic homologous recombination (NAHR) between repetitive DNA elements dispersed throughout the genome.

The Interspecific Fungal Hybrid Verticillium longisporum Displays Subgenome-Specific Gene Expression
mBio, 2021 Hybridization is an important evolutionary mechanism that can enable organisms to adapt to environmental challenges. It has previously been shown that the fungal allodiploid species Verticillium longisporum, the causal agent of verticillium stem striping

MCMC genome rearrangement [PDF]
Bioinformatics, 2003 Abstract Motivation: As more and more genomes have been sequenced, genomic data is rapidly accumulating. Genome-wide mutations are believed more neutral than local mutations such as substitutions, insertions and deletions, therefore phylogenetic investigations based on inversions, transpositions and inverted transpositions are less ...

The CACTA transposon Bot1 played a major role in Brassica genome divergence and gene proliferation [PDF]
, 2008 We isolated and characterized a Brassica C genome-specific CACTA element, which was designated Bot1 (Brassica oleracea transposon 1). After analysing phylogenetic relationships, copy numbers and sequence similarity of Bot1 and Bot1 analogues in B ...
