A Single, Shared Triploidy in Three Species of Parasitic Nematodes
G3-GENES GENOMES GENETICS, 10(1), 225–233.
Contributors: A. Schoonmaker*, Y. Hao*, * & G. Conant n
author keywords: polyploidy; evolutionary model; root-knot nematode
MeSH headings : Animals; Evolution, Molecular; Genome, Helminth; Phylogeny; Triploidy; Tylenchoidea / classification; Tylenchoidea / genetics
TL;DR:
Three root-knot nematodes of the genus Meloidogyne descend from a single common hybridization event that yielded triplicated genomes with three distinguishable subgenomes, and ancestral loci where two of the three gene copies have been lost are less likely to have orthologs in Caenorhabditis elegans that are lethal when knocked down than are ancestral locu with surviving duplicate copies.

TL;DR:
The deduced amino acid sequence of Col-34 has a high degree of homology with the Dpy-13 collagen, although there are significant differences.

TL;DR:
The DNA sequence reveals that dpy-13 is a member of the collagen multi-gene family, and it could encode a polypeptide of 302 amino acids, which is unique in the C. elegans genome.
