REGEN: Ancestral Genome Reconstruction for Bacteria
Ancestral genome reconstruction can be understood as a phylogenetic study with more details than a traditional phylogenetic tree reconstruction. We present a new computational system called REGEN for ancestral bacterial genome reconstruction at both the gene and replicon levels. REGEN reconstructs gene content, contiguous gene runs, and replicon structure for each ancestral genome. Along each b...
متن کاملAncestral Genome Reconstruction in Bacteria
The rapid accumulation of numerous sequenced genomes has provided a golden opportunity for ancestral state reconstruction studies, especially in the whole genome reconstruction area. However, most ancestral genome reconstruction methods developed so far only focus on gene or replicon sequences instead of whole genomes. They rely largely on either detailed modeling of evolutionary events or edit...
متن کاملAncestral Genome Reconstruction on Whole Genome Level
Comparative genomics, evolutionary biology, and cancer researches require tools to elucidate the evolutionary trajectories and reconstruct the ancestral genomes. Various methods have been developed to infer the genome content and gene ordering of ancestral genomes by using such genomic structural variants. There are mainly two kinds of computational approaches in the ancestral genome reconstruc...
متن کاملReconstruction of the Brassica rapa ancestral genome.
The Brassicaceae family includes important crop plants as well as the model plant Arabidopsis thaliana. The evolutionary history of this family is characterized by a number of whole genome duplications (WGDs), and the relationships within the family have been a matter of study and debate for decades. Recent multi-gene phylogenetic analyses have revealed that the Brassicaceae family can be divid...
متن کاملAncestral Reconstruction
Ancestral reconstruction is the extrapolation back in time from measured characteristics of individuals (or populations) to their common ancestors. It is an important application of phylogenetics, the reconstruction and study of the evolutionary relationships among individuals, populations, or species to their ancestors. In the context of biology, ancestral reconstruction can be used to recover...
