Investigating the Evolutionary Dynamics of Genomic Variation across Species

Abstract

Ivan Petrovich*

Genomic investigation of the evolutionary dynamics of genomic variation across species sheds light on the mechanisms driving biodiversity and adaptation. Comparative genomics, enabled by advances in sequencing technologies and computational tools, has revolutionized our understanding of genome evolution, uncovering conserved genomic elements, lineage-specific innovations and evolutionary forces shaping genetic diversity. In this mini-review, we explore key concepts and methodologies in comparative genomics, highlight recent insights into the evolutionary dynamics of genomic variation and discuss the implications for understanding species divergence, adaptation and speciation.
