<p>from a single ancestral gene. Another advantage of duplicating a gene (or even an <a href="page.php?w=Polyploidy">entire genome</a>) is that this increases <a href="page.php?w=Redundancy_%28engineering%29">redundancy</a>; this allows one gene in the pair to acquire a new function while the other copy performs the original function. Other types of mutation occasionally create new genes from previously noncoding DNA.</p>
