Journal ArticleDOI

Sequence and comparative analysis of the chicken genome provide unique perspectives on vertebrate evolution

LaDeana W. Hillier, +174 more
- 09 Dec 2004 - 
TL;DR: A draft genome sequence of the red jungle fowl, Gallus gallus, provides a new perspective on vertebrate genome evolution, while also improving the annotation of mammalian genomes.
Journal ArticleDOI

Evolutionary and biomedical insights from the rhesus macaque genome

Richard A. Gibbs, +177 more
- 13 Apr 2007 - 
TL;DR: The genome sequence of an Indian-origin Macaca mulatta female is determined and compared with chimpanzees and humans to reveal the structure of ancestral primate genomes and to identify evidence for positive selection and lineage-specific expansions and contractions of gene families.
Journal ArticleDOI

The Genome Sequence of Taurine Cattle: A Window to Ruminant Biology and Evolution

Christine G. Elsik, +328 more
- 24 Apr 2009 - 
TL;DR: To understand the biology and evolution of ruminants, the cattle genome was sequenced to about sevenfold coverage and provides a resource for understanding mammalian evolution and accelerating livestock genetic improvement for milk and meat production.
Journal ArticleDOI

Segmental Duplications and Copy-Number Variation in the Human Genome

TL;DR: This study demonstrates that segmental duplications define hotspots of chromosomal rearrangement, likely acting as mediators of normal variation as well as genomic disease, and suggests that the consideration of genomic architecture can significantly improve the ascertainment of large-scale rearrangements.
