Estimating lethal allele frequencies in complex pedigrees via gene
... The GC method was proposed by ALLAIRE et al. (1982). This approach calculates the expected lethal allele frequency from known individual genotypes (carriers) among a set of relevant ancestors.

Genome evolution
Genome evolution is the process by which a genome changes in structure (sequence) or size over time. The study of genome evolution involves multiple fields such as structural analysis of the genome, the study of genomic parasites, gene and ancient genome duplications, polyploidy, and comparative genomics. Genome evolution is a constantly changing and evolving field due to the steadily growing number of sequenced genomes, both prokaryotic and eukaryotic, available to the scientific community and the public at large.
