# 编者信息 熊荣川 明湖实验室 xiongrongchuan@126.com http://blog.sciencenet.cn/u/Bearjazz These results imply that, early in their evolutionary history, duplicate genes tend to be under moderate selective constraints with the rate of amino acid substitut ...
# 编者信息 熊荣川 明湖实验室 xiongrongchuan@126.com http://blog.sciencenet.cn/u/Bearjazz Under the assumption that silent substitutions are largely immune from selection and accumulate at a stochastic rate that is proportional to time, we take the number o ...
# 编者信息 熊荣川 明湖实验室 xiongrongchuan@126.com http://blog.sciencenet.cn/u/Bearjazz The traditional approach to inferring the magnitude of selective constraint on protein evolution focuses on codons, comparing the rates of nucleotide substitution at r ...
