Researchers developed an algorithm that maps human genetic diversity and ancestry to better understand population history.

Significantly, this interval contains FCERIB, an important candidate gene for atopy. The map presented here will assist in the design of future studies of the atopy locus on 11q, and will allow ...

Researchers map functional interactions for 75% of the yeast genome using synthetic genetic array methodology. Proteins carry out their functions by interacting with each other. But proteins ...

By creating the most complete and detailed genetic "map" of kidney function to date, the researchers have paved the way for more precise diagnosing of kidney disease, strategies to prevent it ...

Tatsuya Nobori, Salk Institute for Biological Studies To save time and study dozens of genes at once, Nobori developed a method called plant hybridization-based targeted observation of gene expression ...

California produces 99% of the nation's pistachios, generating nearly $3 billion in economic value in the state. But pistachios have been slightly understudied, in part because of the lack of a ...

This is a genetic map of the British Isles, based on work by Professor Jim Wilson from the University of Edinburgh's Usher Institute and MRC Human Genetics Unit. Disclaimer: AAAS and EurekAlert!

The research, conducted by scientists from multiple agricultural science academies in China over a period of five years, suggests "the pivotal role of Southwest China as the origin of tea plants, ...

The first complete DNA methylation atlas of 39 human cell types reveals which genes can talk or are silenced, depending on whether their sequence is linked to methyl group epigenetic modification that ...
