Massive Amplification at an Unselected Locus Accompanies Complex Chromosomal Rearrangements in YeastĪgnés Thierry, Varun Khanna, and Bernard Dujon Counterintuitively, research in the latest issue of G3 implies these amplifications may arise even in the absence of selective pressure and more frequently than expected. Massive amplification of genes can give an underperforming gene a much-needed boost in productivity. show that natural variation in schooling ability between two populations of threespine sticklebacks is caused by the gene Ectodysplasin.Įvolution of Schooling Behavior in Threespine Sticklebacks Is Shaped by the Eda GeneĪnna K.
