Intron gain and loss in segmentally duplicated genes in rice (2006)
Lin, Haining, Zhu, Wei, Silva, Joana C, Gu, Xun, Buell, C Robin
Abstract Background Introns are under less selection pressure than exons, and consequently, intronic sequences have a higher rate of gain and loss than exons. In a number of plant species, a large...
