Our results suggest that HRi is a minor determinant of variations in codon bias across the genome... - Can intra-Y gene conversion oppose the degeneration of the human Y chromosome? A simulation studyGabriel A B Marais
Universite Lyon 1, Centre National de la Recherche Scientifique, UMR5558, Laboratoire de Biometrie et Biologie Evolutive, Villeurbanne, France

Genome Biol Evol 4:675-82. 2012..Importantly, the species showing a pattern consistent with gBGC are found in all the four major groups of eukaryotes studied, which suggests that gBGC may be widespread in eukaryotes... - Rapid de novo evolution of X chromosome dosage compensation in Silene latifolia, a plant with young sex chromosomesAline Muyle
Laboratoire de Biométrie et Biologie Évolutive UMR 5558, CNRS Université Lyon 1, Villeurbanne, France
PLoS Biol 10:e1001308. 2012..Our results suggest that dosage compensation has evolved in plants and that it can quickly evolve de novo after the origin of sex chromosomes... - MareyMap: an R-based tool with graphical interface for estimating recombination ratesClément Rezvoy
