High-quality reference genome sequences of two Cannaceae species provide insights into the evolution of Cannaceae

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2022
Canna edulis Ker-Gawl and Canna indica L. are species belonging to the Cannaceae family and both have a very high economic value. Here, we aimed to assemble genomes of C. edulis and C. indica at the chromosome level to generate a reference genome for the

The evolution of gene duplicates in angiosperms and the impact of protein-protein interactions and the mechanism of duplication [PDF]

open access: yes, 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.

Whole genome duplications in plants: an overview fromArabidopsis [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Experimental Botany, 2015
Polyploidy is a common event in plants that involves the acquisition of more than two complete sets of chromosomes. Allopolyploidy originates from interspecies hybrids while autopolyploidy originates from intraspecies whole genome duplication (WGD) events.

Functional divergence of gene duplicates – a domain-centric view

open access: yesBMC Evolutionary Biology, 2012
Background Gene duplicates have been shown to evolve at different rates. Here we further investigate the mechanism and functional underpinning of this phenomenon by assessing asymmetric evolution specifically within functional domains of gene duplicates.

Pervasive genome duplications across the plant tree of life and their links to major evolutionary innovations and transitions

open access: yesComputational and Structural Biotechnology Journal, 2022
Whole-genome duplication (WGD) has occurred repeatedly during plant evolution and diversification, providing genetic layers for evolving new functions and phenotypes.

Influence of homology and node-age on the growth of protein-protein interaction networks [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Proteins participating in a protein-protein interaction network can be grouped into homology classes following their common ancestry. Proteins added to the network correspond to genes added to the classes, so that the dynamics of the two objects are ...

The evolutionary dynamics of the Saccharomyces cerevisiae protein interaction network after duplication [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Gene duplication is an important mechanism in the evolution of protein interaction networks. Duplications are followed by the gain and loss of interactions, rewiring the network at some unknown rate.

Relaxation of yeast mitochondrial functions after whole-genome duplication [PDF]

open access: yesGenome Research, 2008
Mitochondria are essential for cellular energy production in most eukaryotic organisms. However, when glucose is abundant, yeast species that underwent whole-genome duplication (WGD) mostly conduct fermentation even under aerobic conditions, and most can survive without a functional mitochondrial genome.

Model-Based Detection of Whole-Genome Duplications in a Phylogeny [PDF]

open access: yesMolecular Biology and Evolution, 2020
Abstract Ancient whole-genome duplications (WGDs) leave signatures in comparative genomic data sets that can be harnessed to detect these events of presumed evolutionary importance. Current statistical approaches for the detection of ancient WGDs in a phylogenetic context have two main drawbacks.

Expansive evolution of the TREHALOSE-6-PHOSPHATE PHOSPHATASE gene family in Arabidopsis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Trehalose is a nonreducing sugar used as a reserve carbohydrate and stress protectant in a variety of organisms. While higher plants typically do not accumulate high levels of trehalose, they encode large families of putative trehalose biosynthesis genes.
