Research in plant and animal genomics often involve complex genetic challenges that require tailored approaches. From addressing genetic complexity in aquaculture species to investigating traits of ...

In a recent study published in Lancet Microbe, researchers compare the potential of real-time reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) genotyping assays with whole-genome sequencing ...

Neil Risch, PhD, co-director of the Research Program on Genes, Environment and Health and director of the UCSF Institute for Human Genetics, stands with Pui-Yan Kwok, MD, PhD, a UCSF professor who led ...

In recent years, the rise of next-generation sequencing (NGS) has unlocked new dimensions in variant detection. However; single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) genotyping often remains dependent on ...

The requirement for increased throughput in SNP genotyping has led to the development of several technologies that do not use microtiter plates, such as gene chips and bead-based systems. These ...

Next-generation sequencing (NGS) is an important component of first-line treatment selection for metastatic non–small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and is typically ordered by medical oncologists in the ...

Since the first sequencing of the human genome more than 20 years ago, the study of human genomes has relied almost exclusively on a single reference genome to which others are compared to identify ...

Like many researchers who had to run hundreds of Southern blots, I felt immediate relief the first time I used PCR for genotyping. It was no longer going to take seven days to see results, and I would ...
