Universal Global Imprints of Genome Growth and Evolution – Equivalent Length and Cumulative Mutation Density

BACKGROUND: Segmental duplication is widely held to be an important mode of genome growth and evolution. Yet how this would affect the global structure of genomes has been little discussed. METHODS/PRINCIPAL FINDINGS: Here, we show that equivalent length, or [Image: see text], a quantity determined...
