Functional divergence of gene duplicates – a domain-centric view

BMC 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.

Autopolyploidy genome duplication preserves other ancient genome duplications in Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar). [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2017
Salmonids (e.g. Atlantic salmon, Pacific salmon, and trouts) have a long legacy of genome duplication. In addition to three ancient genome duplications that all teleosts are thought to share, salmonids have had one additional genome duplication.

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

Computational 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.

The low recombining pericentromeric region of barley restricts gene diversity and evolution but not gene expression [PDF]

, 2014
The low-recombining pericentromeric region of the barley genome contains roughly a quarter of the genes of the species, embedded in low recombining DNA that is rich in repeats and repressive chromatin signatures.

Evidence of multiple genome duplication events in Mytilus evolution [PDF]

, 2022
Background Molluscs remain one significantly under-represented taxa amongst available genomic resources, despite being the second-largest animal phylum and the recent advances in genomes sequencing technologies and genome assembly techniques.

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

Frontiers 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

Supplemental data for: "Effect of whole-genome duplication on the evolutionary rescue of sterile hybrid monkeyflowers"

, 2020
Hybridisation is a creative evolutionary force, increasing genomic diversity, and facilitating adaptation and even speciation. Hybrids often face significant challenges to become established, including reduced fertility arising from genomic ...

The impact of genome triplication on tandem gene evolution in Brassica rapa

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2012
Whole genome duplication (WGD) and tandem duplication (TD) are both important modes of gene expansion. However, how whole genome duplication influences tandemly duplicated genes is not well studied.

Whole Genome Assembly and Annotation of Northern Wild Rice (Zizania palustris L.), a North American Grain

, 2021
Northern Wild Rice (NWR; Zizania palustris L.) is an aquatic grass native to North America that is notable for its nutritious grain. This is an important species with ecological, cultural, and agricultural significance, specifically in the Great Lakes ...
