Background The genome of the domestic cow, Bos taurus, was sequenced using a mixture
of hierarchical and whole-genome shotgun sequencing methods. Results We have …

Motivation: Second-generation sequencing technologies produce high coverage of the
genome by short reads at a low cost, which has prompted development of new assembly …

The MUMmer system and the genome sequence aligner nucmer included within it are among
the most widely used alignment packages in genomics. Since the last major release of …

Here the Human Pangenome Reference Consortium presents a first draft of the human
pangenome reference. The pangenome contains 47 phased, diploid assemblies from a cohort of …

In this paper, we introduce a new, local formulation of the ensemble Kalman filter approach
for atmospheric data assimilation. Our scheme is based on the hypothesis that, when the …

RNA sequencing using the latest single-molecule sequencing instruments produces reads
that are thousands of nucleotides long. The ability to assemble these long reads can greatly …

The whole-genome duplication 80 million years ago of the common ancestor of salmonids (salmonid-specific
fourth vertebrate whole-genome duplication, Ss4R) provides unique …

New sequencing technology has dramatically altered the landscape of whole-genome
sequencing, allowing scientists to initiate numerous projects to decode the genomes of previously …

Background Major advances in selection progress for cattle have been made following the
introduction of genomic tools over the past 10–12 years. These tools depend upon the Bos …

Aegilops tauschii is the diploid progenitor of the D genome of hexaploid wheat 1 (Triticum
aestivum, genomes AABBDD) and an important genetic resource for wheat 2 , 3 , 4 . The large …
