Background: In recent years, gene order data has attracted increasing attention from both biologists and computer scientists as a new type of data for phylogenetic analysis. If ge...
Breakpoint phylogenies methods have been shown to be an effective way to extract phylogenetic information from gene order data. Currently, the only practical breakpoint phylogeny a...
Abstract. Comparing gene orders in completely sequenced genomes is a standard approach to locate clusters of functionally associated genes. Often, gene orders are modeled as permut...
