Widespread gene duplication and adaptive evolution in the RNA interference pathways of the Drosophila obscura group

BACKGROUND: RNA interference (RNAi) related pathways provide defense against viruses and transposable elements, and have been implicated in the suppression of meiotic drive elements. Genes in these pathways often exhibit high levels of adaptive substitution, and over longer timescales show gene dupl...
