Divergence in alternative splicing patterns between duplicated gene pairs in polyploid Brassica napus
Polyploidy is the process of genome doubling that gives rise to organisms with multiple sets of chromosomes. Expression patterns and levels of genes duplicated by polyploidy, termed homeologs, can change and gene silencing can occur after polyploidy. Alternative splicing (AS) creates multiple mature...
