| Abstract | In 1970, Susumu Ohno hypothesized that gene duplication was a major reservoir of adaptive innovation. However, it was not until over two decades later that DNA sequencing studies uncovered the ubiquity of gene duplication across all domains of life, highlighting its global importance in the evolution of phenotypic complexity and species diversification. Today, it seems that there are no limits to the study of evolution by gene duplication, as it has rapidly coevolved with numerous experimental and computational advances in genomics. In this perspective, we examine word stem usage in PubMed abstracts to infer how evolving discoveries and technologies have shaped the landscape of studying evolution by gene duplication, leading to a more refined understanding of its role in the emergence of novel phenotypes. |
