Tetraodon genome confirms Takifugu findings : most fish are ancient polyploids [PDF]
, 2004 An evolutionary hypothesis suggested by studies of the genome of the tiger pufferfish Takifugu rubripes has now been confirmed by comparison with the genome of a close relative, the spotted green pufferfish Tetraodon nigroviridis.

Joint assembly and genetic mapping of the Atlantic horseshoe crab genome reveals ancient whole genome duplication [PDF]
, 2013 Horseshoe crabs are marine arthropods with a fossil record extending back approximately 450 million years. They exhibit remarkable morphological stability over their long evolutionary history, retaining a number of ancestral arthropod traits, and are ...

Differential retention and divergent resolution of duplicate genes following whole-genome duplication [PDF]
Genome Research, 2014 TheParamecium aureliacomplex is a group of 15 species that share at least three past whole-genome duplications (WGDs). The macronuclear genome sequences ofP. biaureliaandP. sexaureliaare presented and compared to the published sequence ofP. tetraurelia.

Studying Whole-Genome Duplication Using Experimental Evolution of Chlamydomonas
, 2023 In this chapter, we present the use of Chlamydomonas reinhardtii in experiments designed to study the evolutionary impacts of whole genome duplication. We shortly introduce the algal species and depict why it is an excellent model for experimental evolution.

Beyond the Whole-Genome Duplication: Phylogenetic Evidence for an Ancient Interspecies Hybridization in the Baker's Yeast Lineage. [PDF]
PLoS Biology, 2015 Whole-genome duplications have shaped the genomes of several vertebrate, plant, and fungal lineages. Earlier studies have focused on establishing when these events occurred and on elucidating their functional and evolutionary consequences, but we still ...

Gene duplicability of core genes is highly consistent across all angiosperms [PDF]
, 2016 Gene duplication is an important mechanism for adding to genomic novelty. Hence, which genes undergo duplication and are preserved following duplication is an important question. It has been observed that gene duplicability, or the ability of genes to be
