Yet Thomas Hunt Morgan did exactly this and in the process made gene mapping possible. Sturtevant Uses Crossing-Over Data to Construct the First Genetic Map Soon after Morgan presented his ...

Although human height is easy to measure, geneticists have struggled for decades to define the number of genes that contribute to height. Recently, scientists have employed high-throughput ...

Researchers at University of Tsukuba have developed "tomoseqr"—a new software tool that enables easy estimation of the ...

Genetic studies of diseases map segments of the genome driving disease. But to understand how those changes contribute to ...

To better understand how plants respond to their dynamic environments, scientists magnify the complex biological conversations between genes expressed in plant cells. Mapping out gene expression is ...

By creating the most complete and detailed genetic "map" of kidney function to date, the researchers have paved the way for more precise diagnosing of kidney disease, strategies to prevent it ...

The first complete DNA methylation atlas of 39 human cell types reveals which genes can talk or are silenced, depending on whether their sequence is linked to methyl group epigenetic modification that ...

This is a genetic map of the British Isles, based on work by Professor Jim Wilson from the University of Edinburgh's Usher Institute and MRC Human Genetics Unit. Disclaimer: AAAS and EurekAlert!

The study, by the HUGO Pan-Asian SNP Consortium was titled, "Mapping Human Genetic Diversity in Asia." ...
