Zebrafish (Danio rerio) have become a powerful tool in neuroscience research due to their
genetic tractability, molecular/physiological conservation, small body size, ease of …

Gene duplication is an important evolutionary mechanism allowing to provide new genetic
material and thus opportunities to acquire new gene functions for an organism, with major …

Gene duplications have long been recognized as a contributor to the evolution of genes with
new functions. Multiple copies of genes can result from tandem duplication, from …

Background The sharp increase of plant genome and transcriptome data provide valuable
resources to investigate evolutionary consequences of gene duplication in a range of taxa …

MCScan is an algorithm able to scan multiple genomes or subgenomes in order to identify
putative homologous chromosomal regions, and align these regions using genes as …

Genome duplication (GD) has permanently shaped the architecture and function of many
higher eukaryotic genomes. The angiosperms (flowering plants) are outstanding models in …

Gene duplication is an important mechanism for adding to genomic novelty. Hence, which
genes undergo duplication and are preserved following duplication is an important question …

The evolutionary history of nearly all flowering plants includes a polyploidization event.
Homologous genes resulting from allopolyploidy are commonly referred to as 'homoeologs' …

With many plant genomes sequenced, it is now clear that one distinguishing feature of
angiosperm (flowering plant) genomes is their high frequency of whole‐genome duplication …

Key message Genome-wide identification of grapevine NAC domain genes and
investigation of their chromosome locations, gene structures, duplication, evolution …
