Orthologs are homologous genes that diverged following speciation. Learn what orthologs are, how they differ from paralogs, and why they are important in comparative genomics, evolution, and genome annotation.
Homologs, orthologs, and paralogs describe different evolutionary relationships between genes. Learn how common ancestry, speciation, and gene duplication distinguish these important concepts in comparative genomics.
