Testing claims of gene conversion between multigene family members: examples from echinoderm actin genes.

Drouin G .


???displayArticle.abstract???
Molecular genetics studies often infer the occurrence of gene conversion events based on simple sequence similarity observations that do not include any statistical analyses. I show that the statistical significance of two previously proposed gene conversion events can easily be tested and point out that a variety of methods are available to perform gene conversion analyses.
