Here we identify duplicated genes in five mammalian genomes and classify these duplicates based on the mechanisms by which they were generated. Retrotransposition accounts for at l...

Following various genetic mapping techniques conducted on different segregating populations, one or more genetic maps are obtained for a given species. However, recombination analy...
Abstract. Whole genome doubling (WGD), a frequent occurrence during the evolution of the angiopsperms, complicates ancestral gene order reconstruction due to the multiplicity of so...

Abstract. As data about genomic architecture accumulates, genomic rearrangements have attracted increasing attention. One of the main rearrangement mechanisms, inversions (also cal...

Abstract. Contemporary inferences about evolution occasionally involve analyzing infinitely large feature spaces, requiring specific algorithmic techniques. We consider parsimony a...
