We show, that the specific distribution of genes length, which is observed in natural genomes, might be a result of a growth process, in which a single length scale $L(t)$ develops that grows with time as $t^{1/3}$. This length scale could be associated with the length of the longest gene in an evolving genome. The growth kinetics of the genes resembles the one observed in physical systems with conserved ordered parameter. We show, that in genome this conservation is guaranteed by compositional compensation along DNA strands of the purine-like trends introduced by genes. The presented mathematical model is the modified Bak-Sneppen model of critical self-organization applied to the one-dimensional system of $N$ spins. The spins take discrete values, which represent genes length.
Technical signs of progress during the last decades has led to a situation in which the accumulation of genome sequence data is increasingly fast and cheap. The huge amount of molecular data available nowadays can help addressing new and essential qu
We have simulated the evolution of sexually reproducing populations composed of individuals represented by diploid genomes. A series of eight bits formed an allele occupying one of 128 loci of one haploid genome (chromosome). The environment required
The leaves of the Coriandrum sativum plant, known as cilantro or coriander, are widely used in many cuisines around the world. However, far from being a benign culinary herb, cilantro can be polarizing---many people love it while others claim that it
The var genes of the human malaria parasite Plasmodium falciparum present a challenge to population geneticists due to their extreme diversity, which is generated by high rates of recombination. These genes encode a primary antigen protein called PfE
As genome sequencing tools and techniques improve, researchers are able to incrementally assemble more accurate reference genomes, which enable sensitivity in read mapping and downstream analysis such as variant calling. A more sensitive downstream a
