Variation within and among species in gene expression: raw material for evolution.
Molecular ecology - 1 Apr 2006
Whitehead Andrew, Crawford Douglas L
Abstract excerpt
Heritable variation in regulatory or coding regions is the raw material for evolutionary processes. The advent of microarrays has recently promoted examination of the extent of variation in gene expression within and among taxa and examination of the evolutionary processes affecting variation. This review examines these issues. We find: (i) microarray-based measures of gene expression are precise given...
