Genome duplications of early vertebrates as a possible chronicle of the evolutionary history of the neural crest
<p>It is now accepted that ancestral vertebrates underwent two rounds of genome duplication. Here we test the possible utility of these genome duplication events as a reference time for the evolutionary history of vertebrates, by tracing the molecular evolutionary history of the genes involved...
