The evolution of comparative genomics
The field of comparative genomics arose hand-in-hand with the ability to generate genomic sequence data. The first computer algorithms to compare amino acid sequences were developed over forty years ago (Fitch 1966; Needleman and Wunsch 1970)and improved upon as nucleic acid sequencing advanced (Sanger et al. 1977) with the application of improved statistical methods to the growing database of ...
متن کاملComparative genomics and the evolution of prokaryotes.
Although biologists have long recognized the importance of studying evolution to understand the organization of living organisms, only with the development of genomics have evolutionary studies become part of their routine toolkit. Placing genomes into an evolutionary framework has proved useful for understanding the functioning of organisms. It has also substantially increased understanding of...

Studies of complete genomes are leading to a new understanding of the biology of mammals and providing ongoing insights into the fundamental aspects of the organization and evolution of biological systems. Comparison of pri...
متن کاملYeast evolution and comparative genomics.
Recent sequencing efforts and experiments have advanced our understanding of genome evolution in yeasts, particularly the Saccharomyces yeasts. The ancestral genome of the Saccharomyces sensu stricto complex has been subject to both whole-genome duplication, followed by massive sequence loss and divergence, and segmental duplication. In addition the subtelomeric regions are subject to further d...
متن کاملComparative Genomics and Genome Evolution
It has become a fundamental need to have genome sequence data due to the fact that the basic process of evolution is the change in DNA sequence and genome size. Recent advances in DNA sequencing technology have facilitated the availability of quite a large number of complete genome sequences from simplest prokaryotes to higher eukaryotes. The availability of whole genome sequence data at our fi...
