Heterogeneous rates of genome rearrangement contributed to the disparity of species richness in Ascomycota

Abstract Background Chromosomal rearrangements have been shown to facilitate speciation through creating a barrier of gene flow. However, it is not known whether heterogeneous rates of chromosomal rearrangement at the genome scale contributed to the huge disparity of species richness among different...
