Gene duplication and an accelerated evolutionary rate in 11S globulin genes are associated with higher protein synthesis in dicots as compared to monocots

BACKGROUND: Seed storage proteins are a major source of dietary protein, and the content of such proteins determines both the quantity and quality of crop yield.
