Complete genome sequence of Spirosoma linguale type strain (1). [PDF]
Spirosoma linguale Migula 1894 is the type species of the genus. S. linguale is a free-living and non-pathogenic organism, known for its peculiar ringlike and horseshoe-shaped cell morphology. Here we describe the features of this organism, together with

Are we there yet? : reliably estimating the completeness of plant genome sequences [PDF]
Genome sequencing is becoming cheaper and faster thanks to the introduction of next-generation sequencing techniques. Dozens of new plant genome sequences have been released in recent years, ranging from small to gigantic repeat-rich or polyploid genomes.

The Cancer Genome Anatomy Project: EST Sequencing and the Genetics of Cancer Progression
As the process of tumor progression proceeds from the normal cellular state to a preneoplastic condition and finally to the fully invasive form, the molecular characteristics of the cell change as well. These characteristics can be considered a molecular

From metagenomics to the metagenome: Conceptual change and the rhetoric of translational genomic research [PDF]
As the international genomic research community moves from the tool-making efforts of the Human Genome Project into biomedical applications of those tools, new metaphors are being suggested as useful to understanding how our genes work – and for ...

Update of the Gene Discovery Program in Schistosoma mansoni with the Expressed Sequence Tag Approach
Continuing the Schistosoma mansoni Genome Project 363 new templates were sequenced generating 205 more ESTs corresponding to 91 genes. Seventy four of these genes (81%) had not previously been described in S. mansoni.
