Science 2002, 296:92-100. This paper and [1•] provide a dramatic demonstration of the efficiency, value and limitations of full-genome shotgun sequencing. The short sequence contigs provide essentially 100% gene discovery, but are not usually useful for characterizing the organization or evolution of multigene segments.

This paper provides a comparison of more than 435 kb of maize DNA with orthologous regions in rice and sorghum. Although all of the candidate rice genes in the region are present and colinear in sorghum and maize, the latter two species have apparently acquired and often tandemly amplified several additional genes in this region.

The authors compare an orthologous four-gene segment from rice and wheat. They find a translocation between two genes and huge differences in physical linkage.
