Pseudogenes and Their Genome-Wide Prediction in Plants

Pseudogenes and Their Genome-Wide Prediction in Plants

Pseudogenes are paralogs generated from ancestral functional genes (parents) during genome evolution, which contain critical defects in their sequences, such as lacking a promoter, having a premature stop codon or frameshift mutations. Generally, pseudogenes are functionless, but recent evidence dem...
