These theoretical expectations are only partially consistent with the limited data that we have on gene duplication. First, comparative studies of nucleotide sequences suggest that although both copies of a gene may often accumulate degenerative mutations at an accelerated rate following a duplication event, selection may not be relaxed completely (14– 16). Second, the frequency of duplicate-gene preservation following ancient polyploidization events, often suggested to be in the neighborhood of 30 to 50% over periods of tens to hundreds of millions of years (17–20), is unexpectedly high.
