MANILA, Philippines — Scientists from the University of the Philippines and Silliman University have assembled a draft genome ...

Einkorn (Triticum monococcum) was the first wheat species domesticated by humans, around 10,000 years ago, playing an important role in the establishment of agriculture in the Middle East. Now, ...

A research team has recently constructed a global polymorphism genetic map of variable number tandem repeats (VNTRs), termed the NyuWa VNTR Polymorphism Map. The team has generated maps using ...

We propose to generate high-density whole genome maps in nano-channels by combining Cas9- guide-RNA (gRNA) sequence-specific DNA labeling and motif-based DNA labeling. Cas9-guide- RNA (gRNA) DNA ...

Scientists reveal a hidden second layer of human DNA, showing how genome folding controls genes and influences disease development.

The Human Genome Project changed everything. A map of the entire human sequence of DNA was the starting point for an enormous number of discoveries, from disease genes to how humans evolved. But DNA ...

An international consortium of scientists reported the completion of a first draft of the bovine genome sequence in October. In a separate announcement, New Zealand-based BoviQuest reported it has ...

Roland Siezen and colleagues at the University of Nijmegen, the Netherlands, have created a software tool that's long overdue. Most researchers in the eukaryotic model organism community have genome ...

Scientists created the largest functional map of a brain to date using a piece of a mouse's brain. The map details the wiring that connects neurons, offering insight into brain function and ...
