在由基因复制的进化的正规版本,当其它是自由的演变时,一个拷贝被使未改变。进化试验的这个过程能坚持百万年。因为它那么突然与完成大多数染色体的多数的核心基因的一生相比被过,染色体和对我们将叫作进化 transients 的可归因的 transcriptome mayin principlebe 的实质的部分,这里参考去了或正在经历这个过程的过程和基因。用作为一个测试用例设置的米饭基因,我们主张这现象向解释为什么比 Arabidopsis 基因有那么多米饭基因,并且过量米饭基因为什么最显示出低类似到 eudicots 走得很远。
In the canonical version of evolution by gene duplication, one copy is kept unaltered while the other is free to evolve. This process of evolutionary experimentation can persist for millions of years. Since it is so short lived in comparison to the lifetime of the core genes that make up the majority of most genomes, a substantial fraction of the genome and the transcriptome may—in principle—be attributable to what we will refer to as "evolutionary transients", referring here to both the process and the genes that have gone or are undergoing this process. Using the rice gene set as a test case, we argue that this phenomenon goes a long way towards explaining why there are so many more rice genes than Arabidopsis genes, and why most excess rice genes show low similarity to eudicots.
