Help or hindrance? The evolutionary impact of whole‐genome duplication on immunogenetic diversity and parasite load
Abstract Whole‐genome duplication (WGD) events occur in all kingdoms and have been hypothesized to promote adaptability. WGDs identified in the early history of vertebrates, teleosts, and angiosperms have been linked to the large‐scale diversification of these lineages. However, the mechanics and fu...
