Identifiability Issues in Phylogeny-Based Detection of Horizontal Gene Transfer
Prokaryotic organisms share genetic material across species boundaries by means of a process known as horizontal gene transfer (HGT). Detecting this process bears great significanc...

Domain Architecture in Homolog Identification
Homology identification is the first step for many genomic studies. Current methods, based on sequence comparison, can result in a substantial number of mis-assignments due to the ...

Evolution of Tandemly Repeated Sequences Through Duplication and Inversion
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...

Inferring Positional Homologs with Common Intervals of Sequences
Inferring orthologous and paralogous genes is an important problem in whole genomes comparisons, both for functional or evolutionary studies. In this paper, we introduce a new appr...

Inferring Gene Orders from Gene Maps Using the Breakpoint Distance
Abstract. Preliminary to most comparative genomics studies is the annotation of chromosomes as ordered sequences of genes. Unfortunately, different genetic mapping techniques usual...

A Heuristic Algorithm for Reconstructing Ancestral Gene Orders with Duplications
Accurately reconstructing the large-scale gene order in an ancestral genome is a critical step to better understand genome evolution. In this paper, we propose a heuristic algorith...
