Abstract excerpt
Duplicate genes are believed to be a major source of new gene functions over evolutionary time. In order to evaluate the evolutionary dynamics of rice duplicate genes, formed principally by paleoployploidization prior to the speciation of the Poaceae family, we have employed a public microarray dataset including 155 gene expression omnibus sample plates and bioinformatics tools. At least 57.4% of old...
