Molecular adaptation and expression evolution following duplication of genes for organellar ribosomal protein S13 in rosids
<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>Gene duplication has been a fundamental process in the evolution of eukaryotic genomes. After duplication one copy (or both) can undergo divergence in sequence, expression pattern, and function. Two divergent copies of the ribosomal...
