Abstract excerpt
Functional innovations after gene duplication may result in altered functional constraints between member gene clusters of a gene family. This type (type I) of functional divergence is measured by the coefficient of functional divergence (theta lambda), which can be interpreted as the decrease in rate correlation between gene clusters, or the probability that the evolutionary rate at a site is statistically...
