TY - JOUR AU - Lovell, Peter V. AU - Mello, Claudio V. PY - 2017 DA - 2017/06/14 TI - Correspondence on Lovell et al.: response to Bornelöv et al. JO - Genome Biology SP - 113 VL - 18 IS - 1 AB - While the analysis of Bornelöv et al. is informative, they provide evidence for the existence of only 3% of the reported avian missing genes set, and thus do not significantly challenge our main findings that specific groups of syntenic protein-coding genes are missing in birds.
