Gene loss during a transition to multicellularity

HIGHLIGHTS

• who: Berenice Jimu00e9nez-Maru00edn from the DivisionState University have published the Article: Gene loss during a transition to multicellularity, in the Journal: Scientific Reports Scientific Reports
• what: The authors demonstrate that significant loss of conserved genes has occurred in the volvocine lineage, and through a gene network model, the authors show that gene loss outperforms gene gain in generating stable novelty.
• how: Upon iterating the model over a broad range of network connectivity similar results were obtained (Supplementary Fig S15). For this the authors used the SeqNet package in R to generate adjacency . . .
