Early history of mammals is elucidated with the ENCODE multiple species sequencing dataSergey Nikolaev
Department of Genetic Medicine and Development, University of Geneva, Geneva, Switzerland
PLoS Genet 3:e2. 2007..Thus, the two datasets support the Afrotheria hypothesis; however, none can reject both of the remaining topological alternatives...
Life-history traits drive the evolutionary rates of mammalian coding and noncoding genomic elementsSergey I Nikolaev
Department of Genetic Medicine and Development, University of Geneva Medical School, 1 rue Michel Servet, 1211 Geneva, Switzerland
Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A 104:20443-8. 2007..This observation may explain why the evolution of CNCs fits the expectations of the nearly neutral theory less well than the evolution of nonsynonymous sites...
Evolutionary forces shape the human RFPL1,2,3 genes toward a role in neocortex developmentJérôme Bonnefont
Department of Pathology and Immunology, Faculty of Medicine, University of Geneva, Rue Michel Servet 1, 1211 Geneva, Switzerland
