Gametophytic Selection in Arabidopsis thaliana Supports the Selective Model of Intron Length Reduction

Why do highly expressed genes have small introns? This is an important issue, not least because it provides a testing ground to compare selectionist and neutralist models of genome evolution. Some argue that small introns are selectively favoured to reduce the costs of transcription. Alternatively,...
