Gene retention, fractionation and subgenome differences in polyploid plants
All natural plant species are evolved from ancient polyploids. Polyloidization plays an
important role in plant genome evolution, species divergence and crop domestication. We …

Divergence of duplicate genes in exon–intron structure
Gene duplication plays key roles in organismal evolution. Duplicate genes, if they survive,
tend to diverge in regulatory and coding regions. Divergences in coding regions, especially …
