Genetic information may play an increasingly important role in the personalized preventive medicine of the future.

Scientists have sequenced his genome for the first time, hoping the world’s oldest land animal can offer clues into the ...

Researchers at Semmelweis University show that the standard human reference genome can cause automated whole-genome analyses ...

A new study highlights how a more diverse pangenome could help reduce misleading genetic findings and improve the future of preventive medicine.

The greater wax moth, Galleria mellonella, has quietly become one of the most useful small workhorses in infection biology. Its larvae are cheap to rear, produce large numbers of offspring, complete ...

A streamlined tomato pangenome has exposed genetic switches that shape fruit size, flavor-related chemistry, and resistance to fungal disease. By combining genomic variation from a cultivated tomato ...

The analysis points to a timestamp of no earlier than 21,000 years ago, but the data leaves a lot more to be desired.

Last time, we organized information about the FASTQ files output by sequencers.FASTQ files record the base sequence and ...

AlphaGenome Atlas, Google DeepMind's new 1-petabyte genomics database, pre-computes predicted molecular effects for all 9 billion possible single-letter DNA changes in the human genome. The ...

Using the new map, the researchers crossed a naturally dwarf peanut with a high-yielding Chinese variety and selected offspring carrying the best combination of genes. The resulting line, LuAi-1, is ...

Myxobacteria are renowned producers of structurally diverse bioactive natural products but are difficult to engineer. Here the authors create a robust heterologous expression chassis and develop ...

Evolution is driven by changes in DNA that sometimes promote adaptation, altering traits like disease resistance or ...
