Homologs which originate following gene duplications are called paralogs, a term in biology
often mistakenly thought to apply to homologs within a genome.
Paralogy can exist between genes in different species, since gene duplication events occur
both before and after speciation.
Thus, the term ‘inparalogs’ indicate paralogs that arose through a gene
duplication event after speciation,while ‘outparalogs’ arise following a gene duplication preceding
speciation.
