Differential retention and divergent resolution of duplicate genes following whole-genome duplication [PDF]
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.

The sequence of rice chromosomes 11 and 12, rich in disease resistance genes and recent gene duplications [PDF]
Background: Rice is an important staple food and, with the smallest cereal genome, serves as a reference species for studies on the evolution of cereals and other grasses. Therefore, decoding its entire genome will be a prerequisite for applied and basic

Studying Whole-Genome Duplication Using Experimental Evolution of Chlamydomonas
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.

Extracting functional trends from whole genome duplication events using comparative genomics [PDF]
The number of species with completed genomes, including those with evidence for recent whole genome duplication events has exploded. The recently sequenced Atlantic salmon genome has been through two rounds of whole genome duplication since the divergence of teleost fish from the lineage that led to amniotes.

Nuclear–cytoplasmic balance: whole genome duplications induce elevated organellar genome copy number [PDF]
SUMMARY The plant genome is partitioned across three distinct subcellular compartments: the nucleus, mitochondria, and plastids. Successful coordination of gene expression among these organellar genomes and the nuclear genome is critical for plant function and fitness.

Whole genome duplication and transposable element proliferation drive genome expansion in Corydoradinae catfishes [PDF]
Genome size varies significantly across eukaryotic taxa and the largest changes are typically driven by macro-mutations such as whole genome duplications (WGDs) and proliferation of repetitive elements.

Homozygous duplication identified by whole genome sequencing causes LRBA deficiency
In more than one-third of primary immunodeficiency (PID) patients, extensive genetic analysis including whole-exome sequencing (WES) fails to identify the genetic defect.

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.

Two rounds of whole genome duplication in the ancestral vertebrate. [PDF]
The hypothesis that the relatively large and complex vertebrate genome was created by two ancient, whole genome duplications has been hotly debated, but remains unresolved.
