Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: To characterize the genetic basis of phenotypic evolution, numerous studies have identified individual genes that have likely evolved under natural selection. However, phenotypic changes may represent the cumulative effect of similar evolutionary forces acting on functionally related groups of genes. Phylogenetic analyses of divergent yeast species have identified functional groups of genes that have...
