Uncovering lineage-specific evolutionary innovations in Actinopterygii by deciphering synteny profiles among a hundred genomes
Gene order is non-random in eukaryotes and significantly affected by whole-genome duplication (WGD). Although WGDs are a well-documented factor in the evolution of ray-finned fish (Actinopterygii), no large-scale phylogenomic synteny profiling for these species is currently available. Here, we constructed a comprehen...
