Learn how gene families are identified using sequence similarity, protein domains, motifs, clustering, orthology, multiple sequence alignment, phylogenetics, and genomic context.
Gene trees and species trees describe different aspects of evolutionary history. Learn how they are constructed, why they can differ, and how duplication, gene loss, incomplete lineage sorting, horizontal gene transfer, and other processes influence evolutionary relationships.
