Paths toward Algal Genomics
|
The last decade has led to an explosion of genomic information that is being used to help researchers understand the gene content of organisms, how gene content and expression patterns may explain the ecological niche in which the organism lives, the ways in which gene content have been arranged and modified by evolution, the movement of genes and gene clusters among different organisms, and environmental and developmental processes that modulate the expression of genes. In this introductory ...
