Department of Biochemistry and Molecular Biophysics, University of Arizona, Tucson, USA
Mol Biol Evol 21:86-9. 2004..Here, we focus on one of these methods, quartet mapping, and show that its application can lead to overestimation of the extent of inferred LGT in prokaryotes, particularly when applied to distantly related taxa...

Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A 102:6595-9. 2005..Taken as a whole, the results derived from the analysis of complete gene inventories support several of the current means to recognize and define bacterial species...
Detecting lateral gene transfers by statistical reconciliation of phylogenetic forestsSophie S Abby

Trends Ecol Evol 25:224-32. 2010..In this article, we review the recent advances and discuss possible developments towards a comprehensive reconstruction of the history of life...
A bunch of fun-guys: the whole-genome view of yeast evolutionHoward Ochman
Department of Biochemistry and Molecular Biophysics, University of Arizona, Tucson, AZ 87521, USA
Trends Genet 21:1-3. 2005..The pattern of genome evolution in yeast differs from that in bacteria apparently as a result of stronger selective constraints on bacterial chromosomes...

BMC Bioinformatics 10:S3. 2009..and phylogenetics. In that context, databases providing users high quality homologous families and sequence alignments as well as phylogenetic trees based on state of the art algorithms are becoming indispensable...
Start-up entities in the origin of new genesVincent Daubin
Department of Biochemistry and Molecular Biophysics, University of Arizona, Tucson, AZ 85721, USA
Curr Opin Genet Dev 14:616-9. 2004..This invention of such novel functions seems to be founded on a strategy that secures the short-term survival of parasitic elements and thereby contributes to the renovation of gene repertoires in their host...

PLoS ONE 6:e21915. 2011..latifolia and its closest relatives. We estimate that sex chromosomes emerged soon after the split with the ancestor of S. viscosa, the probable closest non-dioecious S. latifolia relative among the species included in our study...
Global trends of whole-genome duplications revealed by the ciliate Paramecium tetraureliaJean-Marc Aury
Genoscope and CNRS UMR 8030, , 91057 Evry, France
Nature 444:171-8. 2006..The conclusion of this analysis is that many genes are maintained after whole-genome duplication not because of functional innovation but because of gene dosage constraints...
