Genomic and Population-Level Effects of Gene Conversion in Caenorhabditis Paralogs

Interlocus gene conversion, the nonreciprocal exchange of genetic material between genes, is facilitated by high levels of sequence identity between DNA sequences and has the dual effect of homogenizing intergenic sequences while increasing intragenic variation. Gene conversion can have important co...
