Comparative genomics reveals a constant rate of origination and convergent acquisition of functional retrogenes in Drosophila.

abstract：:The majority of disease resistance genes in plants encode nucleotide-binding site leucine-rich repeat (NBS-LRR) proteins. This large family is encoded by hundreds of diverse genes per genome and can be subdivided into the functionally distinct TIR-domain-containing (TNL) and CC-domain-containing (CNL) subfamilies. The...
