Evolutionary causes and consequences of gene duplication

Nature Reviews Genetics, Published online: 16 February 2026; doi:10.1038/s41576-026-00935-5Gene duplication is a key evolutionary mechanism, as initially redundant paralogues diverge over time. The authors review how adaptive and non-adaptive forces influence the evolutionary fates of gene duplicates, highlighting the importance of function–fitness relationships and gene expression dynamics.

How does cryptic genetic variation influence the long-term fate of gene duplicates (paralogs)? Our new study addresses this question by dissecting the evolutionary potential of redundant myosin paralogs in yeast nature.com/articles/s41... (1/12)

Cryptic genetic variation shapes the fate of gene duplicates in a protein interaction network - Nature Communications

Over time, paralogous genes accumulate changes in their sequences that do not affect their function, which is called cryptic variation. Using paralogous myosins, this study shows how cryptic variation...

Fantastic study of the evolution of epistasis in paralogs!
