Beyond the Whole-Genome Duplication: Phylogenetic Evidence for an Ancient Interspecies Hybridization in the Baker's Yeast Lineage. [PDF]
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 ...

Background With the availability of well-assembled genomes of a growing number of organisms, identifying the bioinformatic basis of whole genome duplication (WGD) is a growing field of genomics.

A reappraisal of the phylogenetic placement of the Aquilegia whole-genome duplication [PDF]
AbstractThe accurate placement of an ancient whole-genome duplication (WGD) in relation to the lineage divergence is important. Here, we re-investigated the Aquilegia coerulea WGD and found it is more likely lineage-specific rather than shared by all eudicots.

Whole genome duplications and the diversification of the Globin-X genes of vertebrates [PDF]
Abstract The globin superfamily of vertebrate genes is a textbook example of how the interplay between local gene duplications, whole-genome duplications, and regulatory changes can facilitate the evolution of novel protein functions.

Whole Genome Duplications and Contracted Breakpoint Graphs
The genome halving problem, motivated by the whole genome duplication events in molecular evolution, was solved by El-Mabrouk and Sankoff in the pioneering paper [SIAM J. Comput., 32 (2003), pp. 754-792]. The El-Mabrouk-Sankoff algorithm is rather complex, inspiring a quest for a simpler solution.

Arabidopsis thaliana is believed to have experienced at least two and possibly three whole-genome duplication events in its evolutionary history. In order to investigate the evolutionary relationships between these duplication events and diversification ...

Subfunctionalization versus neofunctionalization after whole-genome duplication [PDF]
The question of what is the predominant evolutionary fate of genes after duplication events has been hotly debated for decades 1,2 . Two recently published articles in Nature (Lien et al . 3 ) and Nature Genetics (Braasch

MIKCC-type MADS-box genes are involved in floral organ identity determination but remain less studied in the Malus lineage. Based on the conserved domains of this gene family, we identified 341 genes among 13 species.

The shape of human gene family phylogenies [PDF]
Background: The shape of phylogenetic trees has been used to make inferences about the evolutionary process by comparing the shapes of actual phylogenies with those expected under simple models of the speciation process. Previous studies have focused

Deterministic whole-genome amplification of single cells
S.69-86This chapter describes a single-cell whole genome amplification method (WGA) that has been originally published under the name "Single Cell Comparative Genomic Hybridization (SCOMP)" (Klein et al., Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A 96(8):4494-4499, 1999 ...
