New genes may arise through tandem duplication, dispersed small-scale duplication, and polyploidy, and patterns of divergence between duplicated genes may vary among these classes. We have examined patterns of gene expression and coding sequence divergence between duplicated genes in Arabidopsis thaliana. Due to the simultaneous origin of polyploidy-derived gene pairs, we can compare covariation in the rates of expression divergence and sequence divergence within this group. Among tandem and dispersed duplicates, much of the divergence in expression profile appears to occur at or shortly after duplication. Contrary to findings from other eukaryotic systems, there is little relationship between expression divergence and synonymous substitutions, whereas there is a strong positive relationship between expression divergence and nonsynonymous substitutions. Because this pattern is pronounced among the polyploidy-derived pairs, we infer that the strength of purifying selection acting on protein sequence and expression pattern is correlated. The polyploidy-derived pairs are somewhat atypical in that they have broader expression patterns and are expressed at higher levels, suggesting differences among polyploidy- and nonpolyploidy-derived duplicates in the types of genes that revert to single copy. Finally, within many of the duplicated pairs, 1 gene is expressed at a higher level across all assayed conditions, which suggests that the subfunctionalization model for duplicate gene preservation provides, at best, only a partial explanation for the patterns of expression divergence between duplicated genes.
