Advances in Miniaturized Instruments for Genomics

Advances in Miniaturized Instruments for Genomics

In recent years, a lot of demonstrations of the miniaturized instruments were reported for genomic applications. They provided the advantages of miniaturization, automation, sensitivity, and specificity for the development of point-of-care diagnostics. The aim of this paper is to report on recent developments on miniaturized instruments for genomic applications. Based on the mature development ...

Advances in structural genomics.

New computational techniques have allowed protein folds to be assigned to all or parts of between a quarter (Caenorhabditis elegans) and a half (Mycoplasma genitalium) of the individual protein sequences in different genomes. These assignments give a new perspective on domain structures, gene duplications, protein families and protein folds in genome sequences.

Advances in Arachis genomics for peanut improvement.

Peanut genomics is very challenging due to its inherent problem of genetic architecture. Blockage of gene flow from diploid wild relatives to the tetraploid; cultivated peanut, recent polyploidization combined with self pollination, and the narrow genetic base of the primary genepool have resulted in low genetic diversity that has remained a major bottleneck for genetic improvement of peanut.
