However, levels of silent substitution and gene cluster fragmentation do not necessarily covary across all angiosperms in our study.
In summary, these results show a high conservation of clustering in insect miRNAs and suggest a higher level of cluster fragmentation in the Drosophila lineage.
Importantly, we described de novo emergence of species-specific miRNAs together with miRNA gene duplication and/or segregation in new clusters and further cluster fragmentation, which might be important for shaping of vector competence traits in these insects.
Increasing cluster fragmentation to the level observed in AF cells caused the observed changes, i.e. higher spark frequency, increased TTP and duration; RyR clusters dispersed between Z-lines increased the occurrence of macrosparks.
The pattern of RD gene dispersal in these species is similar to that seen for the Fox family of transcription factors, where relaxation of selection on the cluster has resulted in cluster fragmentation [ 24].
The described A. gambiae-specific miRNA gene clustering and cluster fragmentation are most likely an example of the evolutionary "young" species-specific miRNA segregation emerging through gene duplication followed by sequence divergence due to mutational drift.

The Liriodendron mitochondrial genome appears to have been subject to both low silent-substitution rates and infrequent gene-cluster fragmentation relative to sequenced eudicot and monocot mitochondrial genomes.
Although the helium environment may reduce the extent of intramolecular and intra-cluster fragmentation of the dopant, it rarely eliminates it.
Due to its slow rates of gene loss, sequence change and gene-cluster fragmentation, Liriodendron may have retained one or more regions of plastid DNA that date back to the original sequence transfers that permanently seeded some of the plastid tRNAs found across angiosperm mitochondrial genomes.
The number of clusters may overestimate gene discovery, as one gene may be represented by multiple non-overlapping clusters (fragmentation).
Reversals of ranking with respect to stand density and average spatial separation can be explained by stronger spatial structuring (clustering, fragmentation) in the stand of lower density (Horn).

Since I tried Ludwig back in 2017, I have been constantly using it in both editing and translation. Ever since, I suggest it to my translators at ProSciEditing.
