Measuring the impact of gene prediction on gene loss estimates in Eukaryotes by quantifying falsely inferred absences.
In recent years it became clear that in eukaryotic genome evolution gene loss is prevalent over gene gain. However, the absence of genes in an annotated genome is not always equivalent to the loss of genes. Due to sequencing issues, or incorrect gene prediction, genes can be falsely inferred as abse...
