Draft Genome Sequence of the Yeast Rhodotorula sp. Strain CCFEE 5036, Isolated from McMurdo Dry Valleys, Antarctica. [PDF]
A draft genome sequence was assembled and annotated of the basidiomycetous yeast Rhodotorula sp. strain CCFEE 5036, isolated from Antarctic soil communities. The genome assembly is 19.07 megabases and encodes 6,434 protein-coding genes. The sequence will

DNA-DNA hybridization values and their relationship to whole-genome sequence similarities.
DNA-DNA hybridization (DDH) values have been used by bacterial taxonomists since the 1960s to determine relatedness between strains and are still the most important criterion in the delineation of bacterial species.

Dissecting spatio‐temporal protein networks driving human heart development and related disorders
Aberrant organ development is associated with a wide spectrum of disorders, from schizophrenia to congenital heart disease, but systems‐level insight into the underlying processes is very limited. Using heart morphogenesis as general model for dissecting

Genome-wide detection of segmental duplications and potential assembly errors in the human genome sequence [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Previous studies have suggested that recent segmental duplications, which are often involved in chromosome rearrangements underlying genomic disease, account for some 5% of the human genome.

The grapevine genome sequence suggests ancestral hexaploidization in major angiosperm phyla
The analysis of the first plant genomes provided unexpected evidence for genome duplication events in species that had previously been considered as true diploids on the basis of their genetics.
