- Bias in gene retentionsearch for term
The retention of copies of genes after duplication is not random, relative to gene function or evolutionary rate. This bias can be a confounding factor in large scale analyses of paralogs: the function of duplicate genes in a genome results both from the bias in retention and from evolution after duplication.
