Biased Gene Conversion and GC-Content Evolution in the Coding Sequences of Reptiles and Vertebrates

Mammalian and avian genomes are characterized by a substantial spatial heterogeneity of GC-content, which is often interpreted as reflecting the effect of local GC-biased gene conversion (gBGC), a meiotic repair bias that favors G and C over A and T alleles in high-recombining genomic regions. Surpr...
