    "abstract": "Textual analysis of typical microbial genomes reveals that they have the\nstatistical characteristics of a DNA sequence of a much shorter length. This\npeculiar property supports an evolutionary model in which a genome evolves by\nrandom mutation but primarily grows by random segmental self-copying. That\ngenomes grew mostly by self-copying is consistent with the observation that\nrepeat sequences in all genomes are widespread and intragenomic and\nintergenomic homologous genes are preponderance across all life forms. The\nmodel predicates the coexistence of the two competing modes of evolution: the\ngradual changes of classical Darwinism and the stochastic spurts envisioned in\n``punctuated equilibrium\u0027\u0027.",
