ENLARGED GENE FAMILIES. “Clusters of duplicated genes have also formed through tandem duplication (TD) processes, which have greatly expanded some gene families, such as the Nucleotide Binding Site-Leucine Rich Repeat (NBS-LRR) subset of plant resistance genes. Unequal recombination is thought to be the primary mechanism driving the expansion of these gene clusters.”
