Phylotranscriptomic analyses reveal asymmetrical gene duplication dynamics and signatures of ancient polyploidy in mints

Computational analyses of ancient polyploidy

Integrated syntenic and phylogenomic analyses reveal an ancient genome duplication in monocots.

Unraveling widespread polyploidy events throughout plant evolution is a necessity for inferring the impacts of whole-genome duplication (WGD) on speciation, functional innovations, and to guide identification of true orthologs in divergent taxa. Here, we employed an integrated syntenic and phylogenomic analyses to reveal an ancient WGD that shaped the genomes of all commelinid monocots, includi...

Study of Gene Expression Signatures for the Diagnosis of Pediatric Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia (ALL) Through Gene Expression Array Analyses

Background: Acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) as the most common malignancy in children is associated with high mortality and significant relapse. Currently, the non-invasive diagnosis of pediatric ALL is a main challenge in the early detection of patients. In the present study, a systems biology approach was used through network-based analysis to identify the key candidate genes related to AL...

the study of bright and surface discrete cavity solitons dynamics in saturable nonlinear media

امروزه سالیتون ها بعنوان امواج جایگزیده ای که تحت شرایط خاص بدون تغییر شکل در محیط منتشر می-شوند، زمینه مطالعات گسترده ای در حوزه اپتیک غیرخطی هستند. در این راستا توجه به پدیده پراش گسسته، که بعنوان عامل پهن شدگی باریکه نوری در آرایه ای از موجبرهای جفت شده، ظاهر می گردد، ضروری است، زیرا سالیتون های گسسته از خنثی شدن پراش گسسته در این سیستم ها بوسیله عوامل غیرخطی بوجود می آیند. گسستگی سیستم عامل...

Long-Term Asymmetrical Acceleration of Protein Evolution after Gene Duplication

Rapid divergence of gene copies after duplication is thought to determine the fate of the copies and evolution of novel protein functions. However, data on how long the gene copies continue to experience an elevated rate of evolution remain scarce. Standard theory of gene duplications based on some level of genetic redundancy of gene copies predicts that the period of accelerated evolution must...
