Phylogenomic analysis demonstrates a pattern of rare and long-lasting concerted evolution in prokaryotes
Abstract
Concerted evolution, where paralogs in the same species show higher sequence similarity to each other than to orthologs in other species, is widely found in many species. However, cases of concerted evolution that last for hundreds of millions of years are very rare. By genome-wide analysis of a broad selection of prokaryotes, we provide strong evidence of recurrent concerted evolution in 26 genes, most of which have lasted more than ~500...
