Evolution of novel genes in three-spined stickleback populations

摘要

Examples for how genes of different ages are distributed across the analysed species. Each circle represents one gene being present in one species. Each gene is displayed on a separate row. Genes in the same row represent orthologs. Colours are used to distinguish age classes. Locations of the population pairs the data was sampled from. Visual representation of the organs sampled. Pictogram depicting how CNV events can lead to gene duplication, deletion or de novo gene emergence.
