Decoding of Finger Millet Genome: A Milestone of Millet Genomics [PDF]
Signal Transduction Insights, 2019 Whole genome sequencing is an important milestone of the genomics-assisted molecular biology studies. Sequencing the whole genome of plants unravels the complex molecular structure of these complex organisms. In this respect, whole genome sequencing of important small millet that is finger millet was subsequently released by 2 independent groups. This
