Genome duplications of early vertebrates as a possible chronicle of the evolutionary history of the neural crest

It is now accepted that ancestral vertebrates underwent two rounds of genome duplication. Here we test the possible utility of these genome duplication events as a reference time for the evolutionary history of vertebrates, by tracing the molecular evolutionary history of the genes involved in verte...
