Elements for a theory of molecular evolution.

Gene - 23 Oct 2003

Arber Werner

Abstract excerpt

Biological evolution is known to be driven by the availability of genetic variants. Spontaneous genetic variation can be the result of a number of specific molecular mechanisms. These can be grouped into three qualitatively different natural strategies of generating genetic variations, namely local sequence changes, DNA rearrangement within the genome and horizontal gene transfer, which is referred to here as DNA...
