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.

TL;DR: Comparisons of the two genomes exhibit extensive colinearity, and the rate of divergence appears to be higher in the chromosomal arms than in the centers, which will help to understand the evolutionary forces that mold nematode genomes.
Journal ArticleDOI
Automated de novo identification of repeat sequence families in sequenced genomes.
Zhirong Bao,Sean R. Eddy +1 more
TL;DR: An approach for the de novo identification and classification of repeat sequence families that is based on extensions to the usual approach of single linkage clustering of local pairwise alignments between genomic sequences that was able to properly identify and group known transposable elements.
Journal ArticleDOI
Pack-MULE transposable elements mediate gene evolution in plants
TL;DR: It is reported that there are over 3,000 Pack-MULEs in rice containing fragments derived from more than 1,000 cellular genes, which indicates that fragments of genomic DNA have been captured, rearranged and amplified over millions of years.
Journal ArticleDOI
Fast, high-contrast imaging of animal development with scanned light sheet-based structured-illumination microscopy
Philipp J. Keller,Annette D. Schmidt,Anthony Santella,Khaled Khairy,Zhirong Bao,Joachim Wittbrodt,Joachim Wittbrodt,Ernst H. K. Stelzer +7 more
TL;DR: This method discriminates the specimen-related scattered background from signal fluorescence, thereby removing out-of-focus light and optimizing the contrast of in-focus structures, and provides rapid control of the illumination pattern, exceptional imaging quality and high imaging speeds.
