Simulation of the evolution of genomic complexity.

Abstract excerpt

A general evolutionary trend is the generation of organisms of increasing complexity, notwithstanding that reduction and simplification phenomena do occur in the evolutionary process. This paper proposes an evolutionary model incorporating the mechanisms of gene amplification and deletion. The evolutionary process leading to genomic complexity and the coexistence of simpler organisms with complicated ones were...
