Nonrandom survival of gene conversions among yeast ribosomal proteins duplicated through genome doubling.

abstract：:Corals belong to the most basal class of the Phylum Cnidaria, which is considered the sister group of bilaterian animals, and thus have become an emerging model to study the evolution of developmental mechanisms.
