Abstract:
Duplication, either through whole genome duplication or small-scale duplication, is
a critical process in evolution. The duplication of genetic material provides ample
opportunity for adaptation and innovation through the creation of new genes.
However, not all genes are capable of successful duplication. This property of
genes is referred to as gene duplicability and varies considerably across the genome.
The work described in this thesis presents a more cohesive picture of duplicability
and its contributions to gene duplication outcomes than has previously been
available.
