Whole genome duplication is typically followed by considerable gene loss, during which the gene dosage hypothesis predicts the preferential retention of highly networked or dose-sensitive genes. Here, circadian clock genes are found to conform to the gene dosage hypothesis in Brassica rapa , consistent with the current model of the circadian clock as a key regulator of multiple cellular pathways.
