A genome-wide survey of copy number variations reveals an asymmetric evolution of duplicated genes in rice

Abstract Background Copy number variations (CNVs) are an important type of structural variations in the genome that usually affect gene expression levels by gene dosage effect. Understanding CNVs as part of genome evolution may provide insights into the genetic basis of important agricultural traits...
