HIGHLIGHTS
- who: Bacteria and colleagues from the Department of Molecular, Cellular, and Biomedical Sciences, University of New Hampshire, Durham, New Hampshire, United States of America, Department of have published the paper: Why Genes Evolve Faster on Secondary Chromosomes in Bacteria, in the Journal: (JOURNAL)
- what: The authors propose four potential mechanisms that would explain these patterns.
SUMMARY
The key prediction of this theory is that genes found on secondary chromosomes should evolve faster and more variably than those on the primary chromosome. The authors then compared the rates of ortholog families found . . .
