The Consequences of Whole Genome Duplication in Arabidopsis thaliana
Whole genome duplication, having more than two chromosome sets per nucleus is found in all domains and kingdoms, but is especially frequent in plants.

Genome duplication and gene loss affect the evolution of heat shock transcription factor genes in legumes. [PDF]
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 ...

Mechanisms of gene duplication and translocation and progress towards understanding their relative contributions to animal genome evolution [PDF]
Duplication of genetic material is clearly a major route to genetic change, with consequences for both evolution and disease. A variety of forms and mechanisms of duplication are recognised, operating across the scales of a few base pairs upto entire ...

Parallel evolution of amphioxus and vertebrate small-scale gene duplications
Background Amphioxus are non-vertebrate chordates characterized by a slow morphological and molecular evolution. They share the basic chordate body-plan and genome organization with vertebrates but lack their 2R whole-genome duplications and their ...

Genomic plasticity enables phenotypic variation of Pseudomonas syringae pv. tomato DC3000. [PDF]
Whole genome sequencing revealed the presence of a genomic anomaly in the region of 4.7 to 4.9 Mb of the Pseudomonas syringae pv. tomato (Pst) DC3000 genome.

Independent large scale duplications in multiple M. tuberculosis lineages overlapping the same genomic region [PDF]
Mycobacterium tuberculosis, the causative agent of most human tuberculosis, infects one third of the world's population and kills an estimated 1.7 million people a year. With the world-wide emergence of drug resistance, and the finding of more functional

The Impact of Whole Genome Duplication on the Evolution of the Arachnids
Synopsis The proliferation of genomic resources for Chelicerata in the past 10 years has revealed that the evolution of chelicerate genomes is more dynamic than previously thought, with multiple waves of ancient whole genome duplications affecting separate lineages.
