Integrating gene annotation with orthology inference at scale

[INTRODUCTION] Comparative genomics provides valuable insights into gene function, phylogeny, molecular evolution, and associations between phenotypic and genomic differences. Such analyses require knowledge about which genes originated from a speciation event (orthologs) or from a duplication event (paralogs). Existing methods to detect orthologs in turn require knowledge of the location of genes in the genome (gene annotation), which is itself a challenging problem, resulting in a growing gap between sequenced and annotated genomes.
