Genomic deletions occur more often than insertions in all kind of organisms - Evolution has no chance

Genomic deletions occur more often than insertions in all kind of organisms - Evolution has no chance


This is hard scientific evidence against the theory of evolution. Numerous scientific papers confirm this fact: There is a strong deletional bias shaping genomes in all kind of organisms in nature. This means Genetic entropy is a biological fact. Evolution never happened. Here's the evidence:

"Although bacteria increase their DNA content through horizontal transfer and gene duplication, their genomes remain small and, in particular, lack nonfunctional sequences. This pattern is most readily explained by a pervasive bias towards higher numbers of deletions than insertions. When selection is not strong enough to maintain them, genes are lost in large deletions or inactivated and subsequently eroded. Gene inactivation and loss are particularly apparent in obligate parasites and symbionts, in which dramatic reductions in genome size can result not from selection to lose DNA, but from decreased selection to maintain gene functionality. Here we discuss the evidence showing that deletional bias is a major force that shapes bacterial genomes."

"To determine the contribution of small insertion and deletion events to the differences in genome organization between eukaryotes and prokaryotes, we systematically surveyed 17 taxonomic groups across the three domains of life. Based on over 5,000 indel events in noncoding regions, we found that deletional events outnumbered insertions in all groups examined."

"Here, we investigate insertions and deletions produced by nonallelic gene conversion in 338 Drosophila and 10,149 primate paralogs. Using a direct phylogenetic approach, we identify 179 insertions and 614 deletions in Drosophila paralogs, and 132 insertions and 455 deletions in primate paralogs. Thus, nonallelic gene conversion is strongly deletion-biased in both lineages, with almost 3.5 times as many conversion-induced deletions as insertions. In primates, the deletion bias is considerably stronger for long indels and, in both lineages, the per-site rate of gene conversion is orders of magnitudes higher than that of ordinary mutation."




"Insertions and deletions (indels) of short DNA segments are common evolutionary events. Numerous studies showed that deletions occur more often than insertions in both prokaryotes and eukaryotes."

"De Jong and Rydén (1981) analyzed a much larger set of proteins and suggested that deletions are 4-fold more frequent than insertions and that this phenomenon is an inherent property of the replication mechanism. In support of this hypothesis, Graur et al. (1989) found over three times more deletions than insertions in processed human and rodent pseudogenes, suggesting that mutations rather than selection drive the excess of deletion over insertion events."

"By examining the homologous protein sequences, de Jong and Rydén (1981) observed that deletions of amino acids occurred about four times more frequently than insertions. Deletion events also outnumbered insertions for processed pseudogenes. Deletions are about twice as frequent as insertions for nuclear DNA, and in mitochondrial DNA, deletions occur at a slightly higher frequency than insertions. Deletion events are also found more common than insertions in both mouse and rat."

"We further demonstrate that our proposed richer model better fits a large number of empirical data sets and that, for the majority of these data sets, the deletion rate is higher than the insertion rate."

"Here, we document the rapid genome decay of hypermutable bacteria even during tens of thousands of generations of sustained adaptation to a laboratory environment. These findings suggest the need to reexamine current ideas about the evolution of bacterial genomes, and they have implications for other hypermutable systems such as viruses and cancer cells."

Yes, they call it evolution because deletions result typically in a need of rearrangement of biological information. Deletions change genomes and organisms but it really is not evolution, it is genetic entropy.
