MOTIVATION
In genome-wide analyses, the relative age of gene duplications is often estimated by measuring the rate of synonymous substitutions (dS) between paralogous sequences. On the other hand, recent studies have shown the feasibility of inferring, at genomic scales, the relative age of duplication events from the topology of gene family trees. This represents a promising alternative for large surveys requiring an automatic methodology to establish a timeline of duplication events and that…

Evidence for short-time divergence and long-time conservation of tissue-specific expression after gene duplication
- BiologyBriefings Bioinform.
- 2011
The results show that gene duplication leads to increased levels of tissue specificity and that this tends to occur promptly after the duplication event, compared to pairs of orthologs in the same species.
Beyond the Whole-Genome Duplication: Phylogenetic Evidence for an Ancient Interspecies Hybridization in the Baker's Yeast Lineage
- BiologyPLoS biology

This work used phylogenomics to study the ancient genome duplication occurred in the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae lineage and found compelling evidence for the existence of a contemporaneous interspecies hybridization.
The evolution of duplicate gene expression in mammalian organs
- BiologyGenome research
- 2017
A large-scale study of the expression evolution of DNA-based functional gene duplicates in three major mammalian lineages, on the basis of RNA sequencing data from nine species and eight organs, showing that paralogs that emerged in the common ancestor of bony vertebrates are enriched for genes with brain-specific expression.

Chromosome-level assembly, annotation and phylome of Pelobates cultripes, the western spadefoot toad
- BiologyDNA research : an international journal for rapid publication of reports on genes and genomes
- 2022
The first draft of the genome of the western spadefoot toad, P. cultripes, is contributed, which represents a relatively basal lineage in the anuran tree with an interesting ecology and a high degree of developmental plasticity, and thus is an important resource for amphibian genomic research.
Region-specific expression of young small-scale duplications in the human central nervous system
- BiologyBMC Ecology and Evolution
- 2021
This work explored intra-organ expression properties of paralogs through multiple territories of the human central nervous system (CNS) using transcriptome data generated by the Genotype-Tissue Expression (GTEx) consortium and found that par analogs were associated with region-specific expression in CNS, suggesting their involvement in the differentiation of these territories.

Bias in phylogenetic tree reconciliation methods: implications for vertebrate genome evolution

It is shown that tree reconciliation methods are biased when the inferred gene tree is not correct, and these results cast doubt upon previous conclusions that vertebrate genome history has been marked by many ancient duplications and many recent gene losses.

Rapid and asymmetric divergence of duplicate genes in the human gene coexpression network
- BiologyBMC Bioinformatics

A human gene coexpression network is built using human tissue-specific microarray data and the divergence of duplicate genes in it and it is indicated that duplicate genes rapidly lose shared coexpressed partners and play similar role in maintaining the network robustness as compared with singletons.
Mutation rates differ among regions of the mammalian genome
- BiologyNature
- 1989
It is proposed that the differences arising because mutation patterns vary with the timing of replication of different chromosomal regions in the germline can account for both the origin of isochores in mammalian genomes and the observation that silent nucleotide substitutions in different mammalian genes do not have the same molecular clock.
