Conversion between 100-million-year-old duplicated genes contributes to rice subspecies divergence

Conversion between 100-million-year-old duplicated genes contributes to rice subspecies divergence

Abstract Background Duplicated gene pairs produced by ancient polyploidy maintain high sequence similarity over a long period of time and may result from illegitimate recombination between homeologous chromosomes. The genomes of Asian cultivated rice Oryza sativa ssp. indica (XI) and Oryza sativa ss...
