Abstract. Given a phylogenetic tree T for a family of tandemly repeated genes and their signed order O on the chromosome, we aim to find the minimum number of inversions compatible...
Algorithm development for comparing and aligning biological sequences has, until recently, been based on the SI model of mutational events which assumes that modi cation of sequen...
—The problem of reconstructing the duplication history of a set of tandemly repeated sequences was first introduced by Fitch [4]. Many recent studies deal with this problem, show...
Background: The Potato type II (Pot II) family of proteinase inhibitors plays critical roles in the defense system of plants from Solanaceae family against pests. To better unders...
In the class of repeated sequences that occur in DNA, minisatellites have been found polymorphic and became useful tools in genetic mapping and forensic studies. They consist of a...
