The monosaccharide transporter gene family in land plants is ancient and shows differential subfamily expression and expansion across lineages
<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>In plants, tandem, segmental and whole-genome duplications are prevalent, resulting in large numbers of duplicate loci. Recent studies suggest that duplicate genes diverge predominantly through the partitioning of expression and that...
