Farm animal genomics and informatics: an update

Farm animal genomics is of interest to a wide audience of researchers because of the utility derived from understanding how genomics and proteomics function in various organisms. Applications such as xenotransplantation, increased livestock productivity, bioengineering new materials, products and even fabrics are several reasons for thriving farm animal genome activity. Currently mined in rapid...

European Research Priorities in Farm Animal Genomics

Production of safe and healthy high quality food for human population, preservation of stable rural social economic infrastructure and sustainable use of agricultural land and animal resources are important goals of European livestock sector. Research and innovation in the livestock sector will play an important role in development of more effi cient and sustainable strategies for supply of hea...

Functional genomics: tools for improving farm animal health and welfare.

The first genome sequence assemblies of farm animal species are now accessible through public domain databases, and further sequencing projects are in rapid progress. In addition, large collections of expressed sequences have been obtained, which will aid in constructing annotated transcript maps for many economically important species. Thus, the breeding of farm animals is entering the post-ge...

ANIMAL-FARM: An Extensible Algorithm Visualization Framework

Algorithm visualization systems have gained much interest lately. However, most of today’s animation systems do not support reuse or the integration of extensions. If extensions can be implemented, they usually require source code modification and intimate system knowledge. In this paper, we present a simple yet powerful framework architecture for AV systems that allows easy reuse and extensibi...
