Where the minor things are: a pan-eukaryotic survey suggests neutral processes may explain much of minor intron evolution
Spliceosomal introns are gene segments removed from RNA transcripts by
ribonucleoprotein machineries called spliceosomes. In some eukaryotes a second …

The biology of intron gain and loss
Intron density in eukaryote genomes varies by more than three orders of magnitude, so there
must have been extensive intron gain and/or intron loss during evolution. A favored and …

Patterns of Intron Loss and Gain in Plants: Intron Loss–Dominated Evolution and Genome-Wide Comparison of O. sativa and A. thaliana
Numerous previous studies have elucidated 2 surprising patterns of spliceosomal intron
evolution in diverse eukaryotes over the past roughly 100 Myr. First, rates of recent intron …
