Genetic markers such as fragment length polymorphisms (RFLP), simple sequence repeat (SSR), and single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) provide unique identifiers for individual organisms. This aids ...

Lettuce (L. sativa L., 2n = 2x = 18) is an agricuturally important leafy vegetable cultivated predominantly in temperate climates and produced in large quantities in Korea. The complete decoding of ...

The application of pharmacogenetics in identifying single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in DNA sequences that cause clinically significant alterations in drug-metabolizing enzyme activities is ...

Everybody knows that genetics is important in drug discovery. Indeed, you may find that a rather old and boring observation. But genetics is, in fact, becoming increasingly more important as various ...

In a recent study published in Cell Reports, researchers identified look-alike humans, who were genetically unrelated, using facial recognition (FR) algorithms for multi-omics studies. Historically, ...

Data from an observational study suggest that a disabling, sometimes chronic disorder known as complex regional pain syndrome type 1 (CRPS-1) may have a genetic background. Researchers headed by a ...

Noninvasive genetic tools are commonly used in conservation programs because they help practitioners address practical questions—such as estimating population size and reconstructing ...
