  1. We relate the comparison of gene orders to an alignment problem. Our evolutionary model accounts for both rearrangement and content-modifying events. We present a heuristic based on dynamic programming for the...

    Authors: Billel Benzaid and Nadia El-Mabrouk
    Citation: BMC Genomics 2014 15(Suppl 6):S5
  2. With the rapid growth rate of newly sequenced genomes, species tree inference from multiple genes has become a basic bioinformatics task in comparative and evolutionary biology. However, accurate species tree ...

    Authors: Md Shamsuzzoha Bayzid, Tyler Hunt and Tandy Warnow
    Citation: BMC Genomics 2014 15(Suppl 6):S7
  3. The perfect phylogeny is an often used model in phylogenetics since it provides an efficient basic procedure for representing the evolution of genomic binary characters in several frameworks, such as for examp...

    Authors: Paola Bonizzoni, Anna Paola Carrieri, Gianluca Della Vedova and Gabriella Trucco
    Citation: BMC Genomics 2014 15(Suppl 6):S10
  4. Species tree estimation can be challenging in the presence of gene tree conflict due to incomplete lineage sorting (ILS), which can occur when the time between speciation events is short relative to the popula...

    Authors: Théo Zimmermann, Siavash Mirarab and Tandy Warnow
    Citation: BMC Genomics 2014 15(Suppl 6):S11
  5. Traditionally biological similarity search has been studied under the abstraction of a single string to represent each genome. The more realistic representation of diploid genomes, with two strings defining th...

    Authors: Veli Mäkinen and Daniel Valenzuela
    Citation: BMC Genomics 2014 15(Suppl 6):S15
  6. Clonal expansion is a process in which a single organism reproduces asexually, giving rise to a diversifying population. It is pervasive in nature, from within-host pathogen evolution to emergent infectious di...

    Authors: Hossein Khiabanian, Zachary Carpenter, Jeffrey Kugelman, Joseph Chan, Vladimir Trifonov, Elyse Nagle, Travis Warren, Patrick Iversen, Sina Bavari, Gustavo Palacios and Raul Rabadan
    Citation: BMC Genomics 2014 15(Suppl 6):S17
  7. Reed canary grass (Phalaris arundinacea) is an economically important forage and bioenergy grass of the temperate regions of the world. Despite its economic importance, it is lacking in public genomic data. We ex...

    Citation: BMC Genomics 2014 15(Suppl 6):S18
  8. Previous work on whole genome doubling in plants established the importance of gene functional category in provoking or suppressing duplicate gene loss, or fractionation. Other studies, particularly in Paramecium
