I've located 6 sets of ancient conserved gene groupings, in
daphnia thru diptera. Is there someone who would like to write
these into a paper, adding some biology?
These are two or more genes that are next to each other in
Daphnia and 5 or 4 insects (aphid, pediculus, nasonia,
drosmel/drosmoj, anopheles). Some of these may have been found as
paired before, but I can't find reports for others. Some are
duplicates, others appear to be 2 different genes, and one case
looks like 3 different genes. One case may have conserved
non-coding expression between paired coding genes. These are
drawn from data of http://arthropods.eugenes.org/
