Evolution of the defensin-like gene family in grass genomes
... To determine whether the flanking genes of DEFL have undergone large-scale duplication events during the evolution of DEFL gene families, we compared the flanking genes of any two DEFL genes. If three or more flanking members had a best nonself match according to BLASTP (E ≤ 10−10 within species and E ...
