Evaluating dosage compensation as a cause of duplicate gene retention in Paramecium tetraurelia

The high retention of duplicate genes in the genome of Paramecium tetraurelia has led to the hypothesis that most of the retained genes have persisted because of constraints due to gene dosage. This and other possible mechanisms are discussed in the light of expectations from population genetics and...
