Abstract. Genome rearrangement algorithms are powerful tools to analyze gene orders in molecular evolution. Analysis of genomes evolving by reversals and transpositions leads to a ...
Background: Identifying syntenic regions, i.e., blocks of genes or other markers with evolutionary conserved order, and quantifying evolutionary relatedness between genomes in ter...
Hannenhalli and Pevzner [5] gave a polynomial time algorithm for computing the minimum number of reversals, translocations, fissions, and fusions, that would transform one multichr...
Sorting by reversals is an important problem in inferring the evolutionary relationship between two genomes. The problem of sorting unsigned permutation has been proven to be NP-ha...
One possible model to study genome evolution is to represent genomes as permutations of genes and compute distances based on the minimum number of certain operations (rearrangemen...
