The nuanced evolutionary consequences of duplicated genes

Abstract:

Gene duplication is postulated to facilitate evolutionary change by providing new genetic material which can gain or lose functions over evolutionary time. There are many instances throughout metazoan evolution which implicate gene duplications as forerunners of innovation. Though often these exist in the literature as implications only. Remarkably, there are still many facets of paralogous gene divergence which are poorly understood. These facets form the basis of questions to be addresse...
