Functional divergence in tandemly duplicated Arabidopsis thaliana trypsin inhibitor genes.
In multigene families, variation among loci and alleles can contribute to trait evolution. We explored patterns of functional and genetic variation in six duplicated Arabidopsis thaliana trypsin inhibitor (ATTI) loci. We demonstrate significant variation in constitutive and herbivore-induced transcription among ATTI loci that show, on average, 65% sequence divergence. Significant variation in A...
متن کاملSpatial and temporal divergence of expression in duplicated barley germin-like protein-encoding genes.
Subfunctionalization is the process by which a pair of duplicated genes, or paralogs, experiences a reduction of individual expression patterns or function while still reproducing the complete expression pattern and function of the ancestral gene. Two germin-like protein (GLP)-encoding genes, GerB and GerF, are paralogs that belong to a small gene family in barley (Hordeum vulgare). Both genes ...
متن کاملThe evolution of microRNA-regulation in duplicated genes facilitates expression divergence
Background: The evolution of microRNA regulation in metazoans is a mysterious process: MicroRNA sequences are highly conserved among distal organisms, but on the other hand, there is no evident conservation of their targets. Results: We study this extensive rewiring of the microRNA regulatory network by analyzing the evolutionary trajectories of duplicated genes in D. melanogatser. We find that...
متن کاملStudy of antioxidant defense genes expression profile pattern of rice (Oryza sativa L.) cultivars in response to drought stress
Drought stress is one of the important factors that restrict crop production in the world. This study was conducted to investigate defense gene expression in response to drought stress, and also to evaluate the drought tolerance and its mechanism in rice cultivars based on randomized complete block design in two separate environments (drought stress and non-stress). The rice cultivars used incl...
متن کاملSubfunctionalization of Duplicated Zebrafish pax6 Genes by cis-Regulatory Divergence
Gene duplication is a major driver of evolutionary divergence. In most vertebrates a single PAX6 gene encodes a transcription factor required for eye, brain, olfactory system, and pancreas development. In zebrafish, following a postulated whole-genome duplication event in an ancestral teleost, duplicates pax6a and pax6b jointly fulfill these roles. Mapping of the homozygously viable eye mutant ...
