Analysis of gene order conservation in eukaryotes identifies transcriptionally and functionally linked genes.
The order of genes in eukaryotes is not entirely random. Studies of gene order conservation are important to understand genome evolution and to reveal mechanisms why certain neighboring genes are more difficult to separate during evolution. Here, genome-wide gene order information was compiled for 6...
