One of the challenges in the Comparative Genomics field is to infer how close two
organisms are based on the similarities and differences between their genetic materials …

The rearrangement distance is a method to compare genomes of different species. Such
distance is the number of rearrangement events necessary to transform one genome into …

Background In the comparative genomics field, one of the goals is to estimate a sequence of
genetic changes capable of transforming a genome into another. Genome rearrangement …

Recent works on genome rearrangements have shown that incorporating intergenic region
information along with gene order in models provides better estimations for the …

Most mathematical models for genome rearrangement problems have considered only gene
order. In this way, the rearrangement distance considering some set of events, such as …

Genome Rearrangement distance problems are used to infer the evolutionary distance
between genomes. These problems look at the number of mutations called rearrangement …

Genome rearrangement distance problems allow to estimate the evolutionary distance
between genomes. These problems aim to compute the minimum number of mutations …

Genome rearrangement events are widely used to estimate a minimum-size sequence of
mutations capable of transforming a genome into another. The length of this sequence is …

The most common way to calculate the rearrangement distance between two genomes is to
use the size of a minimum length sequence of rearrangements that transforms one of the two …

In seminal works of genome rearrangements, the distance between two genomes is
measured by the minimum number of rearrangements (eg, reversals, transpositions, DCJs …
