SANTA FE, N.M. -- The National Center for Genome Resources NCGR, in partnership with investigators at the Ohio State University, the Department of Energy DOE Joint Genome Institute JGI, the University of Tennessee, and 454 Life Sciences Corp., announced today the receipt of awards totaling approximately $3M from the U.S....
Results: The BLAST Score Ratio BSR approach, implemented in a Perl script, classifies all putative peptides within three genomes using a measure of similarity based on the ratio of BLAST scores. The output of the BSR analysis enables global visualization of the degree of proteome similarity between all three genomes....
CELERA GENOMICS has completed the sequencing phase of one person's genome and will now begin to assemble the sequenced fragments of the genome into their proper order, based on new computational advances. The PE ... CELERA GENOMICS has completed the sequencing phase of one...
This white paper provides scientific justification for sequencing the porcine genome (6X coverage) to identify new genes and novel regulatory elements in the pig and in humans, mice and rats. The porcine genome will serve as a reference non-primate, non-rodent, eutherian genome. The recent ability to genetically modify the porcine...
Completion of the human genome sequence provides the starting point for understanding the genetic complexity of man and how genetic variation contributes to diverse phenotypes and disease. It is clear that model organisms have played an invaluable role in capturing this information. It is also noted that additional species must...
PALO ALTO, Calif. -- Agilent Technologies Inc. (NYSE:A) today introduced a whole genome microarray for mouse, the most widely used mammalian model in life science research. The Agilent whole mouse genome oligonucelotide microarray provides the most comprehensive, up-to-date and high-quality coverage of the mouse genome available. The microarray will benefit...
Cargill Inc. and MetaMorphix Inc. have reported that the two companies have completed the first mapping of the bovine genome, and Cargill said it plans to use discovered genetic markers to identify specific cattle that will perform in specific ways. Cargill Inc. and MetaMorphix Inc....
The National Science Foundation has began its initial phase of the Plant Genome Research Program, an interagency national plant genome research initiative recommended in May 1997 by the Office of Science and Technology Policy. The program inv The...

Scientists with USDA's Agricultural Research Service expect to complete a map of the bovine genome by February 2003, an achievement that ultimately may allow processors to select genetically superior cattle for specific purposes, such as lean beef, m Scientists with USDA's Agricultural Research Service expect to...
This study demonstrates a successful application of RNA fingerprinting-differential display technique in identifying expressed sequence markers for a small targeted region of the wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) genome. Wheat genes are present in clusters s This study demonstrates a successful application of RNA fingerprinting-differential display technique in identifying expressed...
Molecular tools have not identified the genes governing apomixis nor have they been used to successfully transfer the trait to important, sexually reproducing food crops. Several molecular studies addressing apomixis in grasses have used interspecific Molecular tools have not identified the genes governing apomixis nor have they been used...
With the advent of herbicide-resistant wheat (Triticum aestivum L.), there is a concern with the potential for gene migration between wheat and jointed goatgrass (Aegilops cylindrica Host.). This is especially true for genes on the D genome, since this With the advent of herbicide-resistant wheat (Triticum aestivum L.),...
The Ohio State University OSU, Ohio Supercomputer Center OSC, and LabBook, Inc. have formed a partnership to provide life science researchers with an annotated map of the human genome.
