Comparative genomic analysis identifies great-ape-specific structural variants and their evolutionary significance
2023-03-20
Abstract excerpt
During the origin of great apes about 14 million years ago, a series of phenotypic innovations emerged, such as the increased body size, the enlarged brain volume, the improved cognitive skill and the diversified diet. Yet, the genomic basis of these evolutionary changes remains unclear. Utilizing the high-quality genome assemblies of great apes (including human), gibbon and macaque, we conducted comparative genom...
