Deng Pan, Liqing Zhang Genome Biology 2007, 8:R158 (2 August 2007) By studying two mechanisms of gene duplication, unequal crossover and retrotranspostion, and looking at both small gene families and the entire genome, a new estimate for the rate of gene duplication is made which is more accurate for both small and large gene families. |
