Birth-and-death Evolution

Birth-And-Death Evolution is a theoretical model in molecular evolution that explains the dynamic expansion and contraction of gene families through repeated gene duplication events (birth) and subsequent pseudogenization or deletion events (death), operating under natural selection and genetic drift.
