Comparative analysis of multiple genomes in a phylogenetic framework dramatically improves
the precision and sensitivity of evolutionary inference, producing more robust results than …

A major challenge of biology is understanding the relationship between molecular genetic
variation and variation in quantitative traits, including fitness. This relationship determines our …

Since the completion of the genome sequence of Saccharomyces cerevisiae in 1996 (refs 1
), there has been a large increase in complete genome sequences, accompanied by great …

Background Transposable elements are found in the genomes of nearly all eukaryotes. The
recent completion of the Release 3 euchromatic genomic sequence of Drosophila …

The observation that animal morphology tends to be conserved during the embryonic phylotypic
period (a period of maximal similarity between the species within each animal phylum) …

Transposable elements (TEs) are mobile, repetitive sequences that make up significant
fractions of metazoan genomes. Despite their near ubiquity and importance in genome and …

Background The task of recognizing and identifying species names in biomedical literature
has recently been regarded as critical for a number of applications in text and data mining, …

ORegAnno is an open-source, open-access database and literature curation system for
community-based annotation of experimentally identified DNA regulatory regions, transcription …

The contribution of transposable elements (TEs) to genome structure and evolution as well
as their impact on genome sequencing, assembly, annotation and alignment has generated …

That closely related species often differ by chromosomal inversions was discovered by
Sturtevant and Plunkett in 1926. Our knowledge of how these inversions originate is still very …
