Dynamic copy number evolution of X- and Y-linked ampliconic genes in human populations
2017-12-04
Abstract excerpt
Ampliconic genes are good candidates for speciation genes: they are testis-expressed, multicopy and localized on sex chromosomes. Moreover, copy number variation in a specific ampliconic gene pair ( Slx and Sly ) is involved in hybrid incompatibilities between M. musculus and M. domesticus . However, we know little about the distribution of the ampliconic genes copy number and their turnover in human populatio...
