Abstract excerpt
Understanding the correlation between synonymous substitution rate and GC content is essential to decipher the gene evolution. However, it has been controversial on their relationship. We analyzed the GC content and synonymous substitution rate in 1092 paralogues produced by two large-scale dupli...
