Abstract excerpt
Gene duplication has long been acknowledged by biologists as a major evolutionary force shaping genomic architectures and characteristics across the Tree of Life. Major research has been conducting on elucidating the fate of duplicated genes in a variety of organisms, as well as factors that affect a gene's duplicability--that is, the tendency of certain genes to retain more duplicates than others. In particular,...
