Talk:paralogous

From Wiktionary, the free dictionary

As with orthologous, one could argue that paralogous is uncomparable, as two genes either have or do not have a common ancestral gene. At least I cannot recall ever seeing any inflection in the scientific literature. (Homologous, on the other hand, has degrees and is comparable.)
