Whole-genome duplication (WGD; or polyploidy) has played a major role in the evolution of many lineages however, our understanding of the processes that shape genome evolution following WGD remains incomplete. While polyploidy duplicates the entire genome sequence, it is rediploidisation that establishes independent du...

Whole-genome duplications (WGDs) profoundly shaped early vertebrate evolution. The set of paralogs retained from these events—“ohnologs”—has had lasting impacts on genome structure and function, including disease gene enrichment. Despite this, we still lack a gold standard ohnolog database. Here, we have harnessed ance...

This work develops an automated and user-friendly pipeline for reconstructing ancestral chromosomes before and after WGD, and uses the conservation of gene content to infer chromosomal rearrangement events in this timeframe.
