Genetic variation in livestock is a critical area of research that underpins modern breeding practices and agricultural productivity. Differences in DNA sequences, including single nucleotide ...

Structural variations (SVs)—large-scale changes in DNA sequence—play a crucial role in shaping traits such as yield, quality, and environmental adaptation in crops.

Genetic variants that cause rare disorders may remain elusive even after expansive testing, such as exome sequencing. The diagnostic yield of genome sequencing, particularly after a negative ...

The present theory offers a unified solution to three closely related evolutionary problems. (1) Why does an evolving population explore only a small fraction of the accessible pathways in genotype ...

Structural variations (SVs), including insertions, deletions, inversions, and substitutions, can profoundly influence gene ...

Gene editing may hold the key to rescuing endangered species—not just by preserving them, but by restoring their lost genetic diversity using DNA from museum specimens and related species. Scientists ...

Arun Durvasula has received funding from the National Institutes of Health and the National Institute of Science. Sitting in my doctor’s examination room, I was surprised when she told me, “Genetics ...

Nabsys 2.0, LLC (Nabsys), a pioneer in electronic genome mapping technology, in partnership with Hitachi High-Tech Corporation (HHT) announces the presentation of high resolution structural variation ...

Cock Van Oosterhout receives funding from the Royal Society for conservation genomics work on threatened bird species in Mauritius, and a donation by the Colossal Foundation for conservation genomic ...

In a disused town hall building in Stratford, East London, a familiar sight awaits those who enter. Health care workers dressed in scrubs emerge from partitioned sections to address a quiet but steady ...
