Abstract excerpt

The homologous genomic region that contains two paralogous genes, Adh and Adh-dup, was compared in several Drosophila species. Sequences were analyzed as follows: a) At the nucleotide level, Ka and Ks values were determined for each pair of species. Ka-Adh and Ka-Adh-dup are not significantly dif...
