In comparative genomics, one wishes to deduce the evolutionary distance between dierent species by studying their genomes. Using gene order information, we seek the number of time...
Background: Paralog reduction, the loss of duplicate genes after whole genome duplication (WGD) is a pervasive process. Whether this loss proceeds gene by gene or through deletion...
As gene order evolves through a variety of chromosomal rearrangements, conserved segments provide important insight into evolutionary relationships and functional roles of genes. ...

Background: Many protein families have undergone functional divergence after gene duplications such that current subgroups of the family carry out overlapping but distinct biologi...
