Developing a set of ancestry-sensitive DNA markers reflecting continental origins of humans [PDF]
Background: The identification and use of Ancestry-Sensitive Markers (ASMs), i.e. genetic polymorphisms facilitating the genetic reconstruction of geographical origins of individuals, is far from straightforward.

The use of DNA markers for genetic differentiation of common (Avena sativa L.) and naked oat (Avena nuda L.) [PDF]
The usefulness of genetic identification of varieties for seed quality analyses becomes important, when we suspect the presence of another variety, species or even genus, based on morphological seed traits in the purity analysis and germination test ...

Progress in the Identification of Genetic Factors in Periodontitis [PDF]
The susceptibility to periodontitis is determined by a complex interplay between bacteria, the immune system, and life-style factors, and is mainly regulated by genes. The genetic factors contributing to the pathogenesis of periodontitis are still not fully defined.

Identification of mobile genetic elements with geNomad
Abstract Identifying and characterizing mobile genetic elements in sequencing data is essential for understanding their diversity, ecology, biotechnological applications and impact on public health. Here we introduce geNomad, a classification and annotation framework that combines information from gene content and
