Transcription factor DUO1 generated by neo-functionalization is associated with evolution of sperm differentiation in plants

The evolutionary mechanisms leading to the development of sperm are poorly understood. Here, the authors infer that neofunctionalisation and expression changes of the orthologue of DUO1 in algal ancestors of land plants were key events for sperm differentiation and sexual reproduction in this lineag...

Sumario:The evolutionary mechanisms leading to the development of sperm are poorly understood. Here, the authors infer that neofunctionalisation and expression changes of the orthologue of DUO1 in algal ancestors of land plants were key events for sperm differentiation and sexual reproduction in this lineage.
