It is well known that nucleotide binding site (NBS)-encoding genes are duplicate-rich and fast-evolving genes. However, there is little information on the relative importance of tandem and segmental NBS duplicates and their exact evolutionary rates. The two rounds of large-scale duplication that have occurred in soybean provide a unique opportunity to investigate these issues. Comparison of NBS and non-NBS genes on segments of syntenic homoeologs shows that NBS-encoding genes evolve at least 1.5-fold faster (similar to 1.5-fold higher synonymous and similar to 2.3-fold higher nonsynonymous substitution rates) and lose their genes similar to twofold faster than the flanking non-NBS genes. Compared with segmental duplicates, tandem NBS duplicates are more abundant in soybean, suggesting that tandem duplication is the major driving force in the expansion of NBS genes. Notably, significant sequence exchanges along with significantly positive selection were
