Journal ArticleDOI

The evolution of gene duplications: classifying and distinguishing between models.

TL;DR: A comprehensive classification of the models that are relevant to all stages of the evolution of gene duplications is presented, each of which predicts a unique combination of evolutionary dynamics and functional properties.
Journal ArticleDOI

Selection in the evolution of gene duplications

TL;DR: It is hypothesized that gene duplications that persist in an evolving lineage are beneficial from the time of their origin, due primarily to a protein dosage effect in response to variable environmental conditions; duplications are likely to give rise to new functions at a later phase of their evolution once a higher level of divergence is reached.
Journal ArticleDOI

The ctenophore genome and the evolutionary origins of neural systems

TL;DR: The draft genome of Pleurobrachia bachei, Pacific sea gooseberry, together with ten other ctenophore transcriptomes, are presented, and show that they are remarkably distinct from other animal genomes in their content of neurogenic, immune and developmental genes.
Journal ArticleDOI

Interactions among quantitative traits in the course of sympatric speciation

TL;DR: The hypergeometric phenotypic model is used to show that sympatric speciation is possible even when fitness and mate choice depend on different quantitative traits, so that speciation must involve formation of covariance between these traits.
Journal ArticleDOI

Gene duplication as a mechanism of genomic adaptation to a changing environment

TL;DR: The identification of copy-number variation in ecological field studies of species adapting to stressful or novel environmental conditions may improve the understanding of gene duplication as a mechanism of adaptation and its relevance to the long-term persistence of gene duplications.
