Chromosomal duplications in bacteria, fruit flies, and humans.

Year: 1996

Type: article

Abstract: Tandem duplication of chromosomal segments has been recognized as a frequent mutational mechanism in several genetic model systems. In bacteria, fruit flies, and humans, duplications form by similar molecular mechanisms and appear to be important in genome evolution. 80 refs.
