Horse genome assembled
The first draft of the horse genome sequence has been deposited in public databases and is freely available for use by biomedical and veterinary researchers around the globe, leaders of the international Horse Genome Sequencing Project announced today. view more (2007-02-08)
The 15-Minute Genome 2009 Industrial Physics Forum features faster, cheaper genome sequencing
In the race for faster, cheaper ways to read human genomes, Pacific Biosciences is hoping to set a new benchmark with technology that watches DNA being copied in real time. view more (2009-07-28)
Chicken genome gives insights into human genome
The draft sequence of the wild chicken, Gallus gallus, will be published in the Dec 9th issue of Nature (cover story). The analysis of this genome is not about getting bigger eggs and tastier chicken - it's giving scientists surprising insights into the human genome. Researchers can use these new data as a tool to identify similar sequences in... view more... (2004-12-06)
Using the genomic shortcut to predict bacterial behavior
How do you study a pathogen that can't survive outside its host's cells? In a new study published in the open access journal PLoS Biology, Hiroyuki Ogata and colleagues show that sequencing and analyzing the genome of the bacteria Rickettsia felis provide valuable insights into the biology and behavior of this intracellular pathogen. view more (2005-07-05)
Completed genome set to transform the cow
The ability of scientists to improve health and disease management of cattle and enhance the nutritional value of beef and dairy products has received a major boost with the release this week of the most complete sequence of the cow genome ever assembled. view more (2006-08-17)
New Sequencing Technique Could Boost Pine Beetle Fight, Improve Cancer Research
UBC researchers have helped developed a cheaper, faster way to compile draft genome sequences that could advance the fight against mountain pine beetle (MPB) infestation and improve cancer research. view more (2009-09-16)
Genetic study of Neanderthal DNA reveals early split between humans and Neanderthals
In the most thorough study to date of the Neanderthal genome, scientists suggest an early human-Neanderthal split. The two species have a common ancestry, say the authors, but do not share much else after evolving their separate ways. view more (2006-11-16)
Single nucleotide polymorphisms and forensic genetics, maybe not such a perfect combination
Forensic genetics is the branch of genetics that, through DNA analysis and comparison, deals with the resolution of legal problems such as paternity tests. Recently, it has been proposed that single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) could be used as a new genetic marker in the field eventually even replacing the methods/markers now employed. But in... view more... (2004-10-21)
Genome sequencing is for ecologists, too
An organism widely used for genetics-versus-environment studies has joined the panoply of mice, rats, dogs, humans and other species whose entire genomes have been sequenced. view more (2006-01-18)
Genetic abnormality may increase risk of blood disorders
Researchers at Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center (MSKCC) have shown for the first time that a tendency to develop some blood disorders may be inherited. view more (2009-03-16)
New method of selecting DNA for resequencing accelerates discovery of subtle DNA variations
A new technology developed by scientists at Emory University will allow researchers to more easily discover subtle and overlooked genetic variations that may have serious consequences for health and disease. Called Microarray-based Genomic Selection (MGS), the research protocol allows scientists to extract and enrich specific large-sized DNA... view more... (2007-10-15)
Professor analyzes nuclear receptors in bee genome
Susan Fahrbach, a Wake Forest University biologist, is among the more than 170 researchers who helped decode the honey bee genome. view more (2006-10-27)
UNC researchers decode structure of an entire HIV genome
The structure of an entire HIV genome has been decoded for the first time by researchers at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. view more (2009-08-06)

Toward the ethical treatment of whole genome research participants
Recent technological developments have made it possible for scientists to sequence an entire human genome, but these advances may be a mixed blessing. view more (2008-03-25)
Genome of yellow fever/dengue fever mosquito sequenced
Developing new strategies to prevent and control yellow fever and dengue fever has become more possible with the completion of the first draft of the genome sequence of Aedes aegypti mosquito by scientists led by Vishvanath Nene at The Institute for Genomic Research (TIGR) and David Severson at the University of Notre Dame. view more (2007-05-18)
FEMS-Lwoff Award won by Professor Sir David Hopwood, FRS
Professor Sir David Hopwood of the Department of Molecular Microbiology at the John Innes Centre, Norwich, UK, has been named as the recipient of the FEMS-Lwoff Award for outstanding scientific work in the field of Microbiology. Professor Hopwood's research has concentrated on the genetics and biochemistry of the actinomycete bacteria of the... view more... (2003-05-21)
