Divergence and Shannon information in genomes
Hong-Da Chen, Chang-Heng Chang, Li-Ching Hsieh +1
Shannon information (SI) and its special case, divergence, are defined for a DNA sequence in terms of probabilities of chemical words in the sequence and are computed for a set of…
Quasireplicas and universal lengths of microbial genomes
Li-Ching Hsieh, Chang-Heng Chang, Liaofu Luo +2
Statistical analysis of distributions of occurrence frequencies of short words in 108 microbial complete genomes reveals the existence of a set of universal "root-sequence lengths"…
Evidence for growth of microbial genomes by short segmental duplications
Li-Ching Hsieh, Liaofu Luo, HC Lee
We show that textual analysis of microbial genomes reveal telling footprints of the early evolution of the genomes. The frequencies of word occurrence of random DNA sequences consi…
Minimal model for genome evolution and growth
L. C. Hsieh, L. F. Luo, F. M. Ji +1
Textual analysis of typical microbial genomes reveals that they have the statistical characteristics of a DNA sequence of a much shorter length. This peculiar property supports an…
