A block-interchange is a rearrangement event that exchanges two, not necessarily consecutive, contiguous regions in a genome, maintaining the original orientation. Signed reversal...
Although analysis of genome rearrangements was pioneered by Dobzhansky and Sturtevant 65 years ago, we still know very little about the rearrangement events that produced the exis...
The assignment of orthologous genes between a pair of genomes is a fundamental and challenging problem in comparative genomics, since many computational methods for solving variou...

Background: Analysis of genomes evolving via block-interchange events leads to a combinatorial problem of sorting by block-interchanges, which has been studied recently to evaluat...
Abstract. Gene rearrangements have been used successfully in phylogenetic reconstruction and comparative genomics, but usually under the assumption that all genomes have the same g...
