Lineage-specific rediploidization is a mechanism to explain time-lags between genome duplication and evolutionary diversification

Abstract Background The functional divergence of duplicate genes (ohnologues) retained from whole genome duplication (WGD) is thought to promote evolutionary diversification. However, species radiation and phenotypic diversification are often temporally separated from WGD. Salmonid fish, whose ances...
