Conversion between duplicated genes generated by polyploidization contributes to the divergence of poplar and willow
Abstract Background Gene conversion has an important effect on duplicate genes produced by polyploidization. Poplar (Populus trichocarpa) and willow (Salix brachista) are leading models and excellent green plants in the Salicaceae. Although much attention has been paid to the evolution of duplicated...
