Copy, Paste, Evolve: Unlocking the Secrets of Plant Chemical Diversity

The duplication (i.e. copy, paste) of genes underlies evolution, as a new gene copy can gain evolve new functions. In plants, genes involved in rapidly evolving adaptive traits—such as the production of defensive chemicals—are often found in highly duplicated structures called tandem arrays. Read more
