Description

This lecture discusses the concept of gene families, which are composed of genes originating from a common ancestral gene. It explores the process of gene duplication and evolution, highlighting the consequences of unequal crossing and the emergence of new gene functions. The lecture also delves into the evolution of vision genes, specifically the duplication of ancestral genes related to color vision and the structure of photoreceptor cells in the retina.
