Did genome duplication drive the origin of teleosts? A comparative study of diversification in ray-finned fishes
<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>One of the main explanations for the stunning diversity of teleost fishes (~29,000 species, nearly half of all vertebrates) is that a fish-specific whole-genome duplication event (FSGD) in the ancestor to teleosts triggered their sub...
