Gene Dosage Balance Immediately Following Whole-Genome Duplication in Arabidopsis thaliana
Research, The Plant Cell, The Plant Cell: In BriefFlowering plants have witnessed multiple cycles of whole-genome duplication (WGD) over the past 200 million years of evolution. Typically, WGD increases genome size and gene content, followed by gene loss, or fractionation, depending on functional categories. Certain classes of genes are retained as…
