OrthoDB provides evolutionary and functional annotations of genes in a diverse sampling of
eukaryotes, prokaryotes, and viruses. Genomics continues to accelerate our exploration of …

OrthoDB provides evolutionary and functional annotations of orthologs, inferred for a vast
number of available organisms. OrthoDB is leading in the coverage and genomic diversity …

Abstract OrthoDB (https://www. orthodb. org) provides evolutionary and functional
annotations of orthologs. This update features a major scaling up of the resource coverage …

OrthoDB is a comprehensive catalog of orthologs, genes inherited by extant species from a
single gene in their last common ancestor. In 2016 OrthoDB reached its 9th release, growing …

Orthology, refining the concept of homology, is the cornerstone of evolutionary comparative
studies. With the ever-increasing availability of genomic data, inference of orthology has …

Prediction of orthologs (homologous genes that diverged because of speciation) is an
integral component of many comparative genomics methods. Although orthologs are more …

The identification of orthologs—genes in different species which descended from the same
gene in their last common ancestor—is a prerequisite for many analyses in comparative …

The concept of homology drives speculation on a gene's function in any given species when
its biological roles in other species are characterized. With reference to a specific species …

The concept of orthology provides a foundation for formulating hypotheses on gene and
genome evolution, and thus forms the cornerstone of comparative genomics, phylogenomics …

The concept of orthology is widely used to relate genes across different species using
comparative genomics, and it provides the basis for inferring gene function. Here we present …
