The genome of the Western clawed frog Xenopus tropicalisUffe Hellsten
Department of Energy Joint Genome Institute, Walnut Creek, CA 94598, USA
Science 328:633-6. 2010..The genome exhibits substantial shared synteny with human and chicken over major parts of large chromosomes, broken by lineage-specific chromosome fusions and fissions, mainly in the mammalian lineage...

The DNA sequence and comparative analysis of human chromosome 5Jeremy Schmutz
Stanford Human Genome Center, Department of Genetics, Stanford University School of Medicine, 975 California Ave, Palo Alto, California 94304, USA
Nature 431:268-74. 2004..These duplications are very recent evolutionary events and probably have a mechanistic role in human physiological variation, as deletions in these regions are the cause of debilitating disorders including spinal muscular atrophy...
