Asian rice, Oryza sativa is a cultivated, inbreeding species that feeds over half of the world's
population. Understanding the genetic basis of diverse physiological, developmental, and …

We resequenced 876 short fragments in a sample of 96 individuals of Arabidopsis thaliana
that included stock center accessions as well as a hierarchical sample from natural …

The imprints of domestication and breed development on the genomes of livestock likely differ
from those of companion animals. A deep draft sequence assembly of shotgun reads from …

A potentially serious disadvantage of association mapping is the fact that marker-trait
associations may arise from confounding population structure as well as from linkage to causative …

The domestic dog exhibits greater diversity in body size than any other terrestrial vertebrate.
We used a strategy that exploits the breed structure of dogs to investigate the genetic basis …

Rice, the primary source of dietary calories for half of humanity, is the first crop plant for which
a high-quality reference genome sequence from a single variety was produced. We used …

The Genome in a Bottle Consortium, hosted by the National Institute of Standards and
Technology (NIST) is creating reference materials and data for human genome sequencing, as …

There is currently tremendous interest in the possibility of using genome-wide association
mapping to identify genes responsible for natural variation, particularly for human disease …

Domestic dogs exhibit tremendous phenotypic diversity, including a greater variation in body
size than any other terrestrial mammal. Here, we generate a high density map of canine …

Aluminum (Al) toxicity is a primary limitation to crop productivity on acid soils, and rice has
been demonstrated to be significantly more Al tolerant than other cereal crops. However, the …
