The CACTA transposon Bot1 played a major role in Brassica genome divergence and gene proliferation [PDF]
We isolated and characterized a Brassica C genome-specific CACTA element, which was designated Bot1 (Brassica oleracea transposon 1). After analysing phylogenetic relationships, copy numbers and sequence similarity of Bot1 and Bot1 analogues in B ...

The Sequence of the Human Genome [PDF]
A 2.91-billion base pair (bp) consensus sequence of the euchromatic portion of the human genome was generated by the whole-genome shotgun sequencing method. The 14.8-billion bp DNA sequence was generated over 9 months from 27,271,853 high-quality sequence reads (5.11-fold coverage of the genome) from both ends of plasmid clones made from the DNA of ...

Draft genome sequence of the Daphnia pathogen Octosporea bayeri: insights into the gene content of a large microsporidian genome and a model for host-parasite interactions [PDF]
Background: The highly compacted 2.9-Mb genome of Encephalitozoon cuniculi placed the microsporidia in the spotlight, encoding a mere 2,000 proteins and a highly reduced suite of biochemical pathways.

Genome sequences: Genome sequence of a model prokaryote [PDF]
The complete Escherichia coli genome sequence is now known; it should greatly facilitate the analysis of other genomes, but a lot remains to be learnt about E. coli itself. About half the genes were previously uncharacterized, but expanding databases and improving analysis methods will help predict their functions.
