Abstract. During evolution, genomes are subject to genome rearrangements that alter the ordering and orientation of genes on the chromosomes. If a genome consists of a single chrom...
Background: Genomic rearrangements have been studied since the beginnings of modern genetics and models for such rearrangements have been the subject of many papers over the last ...
Multi-break rearrangements break a genome into multiple fragments and further glue them together in a new order. While 2break rearrangements represent standard reversals, fusions, ...
Abstract. Perfection has been used as a criteria to select rearrangement scenarios since 2004. However, there is a fundamental bias towards extant species in the original definitio...
Most genome rearrangements (e.g., reversals and translocations) can be represented as 2-breaks that break a genome at 2 points and glue the resulting fragments in a new order. Mul...
