Abstract. Whole genome doubling (WGD), a frequent occurrence during the evolution of the angiopsperms, complicates ancestral gene order reconstruction due to the multiplicity of so...

Background: Until today, analysis of 16S ribosomal RNA (rRNA) sequences has been the de-facto gold standard for the assessment of phylogenetic relationships among prokaryotes. How...
Abstract. Clusters of genes that have evolved by repeated segmental duplication present difficult challenges throughout genomic analysis, from sequence assembly to functional analy...
Abstract—Because of the advent of high-throughput sequencing and the consequent reduction in cost of sequencing, many organisms have been completely sequenced and most of their g...
