Abstract

We infer post-hybridization rearrangements in a hybrid genome, given the gene orders on its chromosomes and some knowledge of the two parent genomes. We study this in two biologically and computationally different contexts, genome fusion and interspecific fertilization. Exact algorithms are furnished for some cases, and a heuristic based on the Hannenhalli-Pevzner theory for another.
