Early events in genome evolution.- 1. Gene duplication and other evolutionary strategies: from the RNA world to the future.- 2. Major transitions in evolution by genome fusions: from prokaryotes to eukaryotes, metazoans, bilaterians and vertebrates.- 3. Detection of gene duplications and block duplications in eukaryotic genomes.- 4. The evolutionary demography of duplicate genes.- Debating the 2R and 3R genome duplication hypotheses.- 5. Functional evolution in the ancestral lineage of vertebrates or when genomic complexity was wagging its morphological tail.- 6. Numerous groups of chromosomal regional paralogies strongly indicate two genome doublings at the root of the vertebrates.- 7. Are all fishes ancient polyploids?.- 8.

Introns in, introns out in plant gene familes: a genomic approach of the dynamics of gene structure.- 12. Investigating ancient duplication events in the Arabidopsis genome.- Case studies.- 13. Crystallin genes: specialization by changes in gene regulation may precede gene duplication.- 14. Evolution of signal transduction by gene and genome duplication in fish.- 15. The role of gene duplication in the evolution and function of the vertebrate Dlx/distal-less bigene clusters.- 16.
