Expression Divergence of Duplicate Genes in the Protein Kinase Superfamily in Pacific Oyster

Gene duplication has been proposed to serve as the engine of evolutionary innovation. It is well recognized that eukaryotic genomes contain a large number of duplicated genes that evolve new functions or expression patterns. However, in mollusks, the evolutionary mechanisms underlying the divergence...
