Divergent genes in gerbils: prevalence, relation to GC-biased substitution, and phenotypic relevance
BACKGROUND: Two gerbil species, sand rat (Psammomys obesus) and Mongolian jird (Meriones unguiculatus), can become obese and show signs of metabolic dysregulation when maintained on standard laboratory diets. The genetic basis of this phenotype is unknown. Recently, genome sequencing has uncovered v...
