Quickly finding orthologs as reciprocal best hits with BLAT, LAST, and UBLAST: how much do we miss?

Reciprocal Best Hits (RBH) are a common proxy for orthology in comparative genomics. Essentially, a RBH is found when the proteins encoded by two genes, each in a different genome, find each other as the best scoring match in the other genome. NCBI's BLAST is the software most usually used for...
