Loblolly pine genome is largest ever sequenced
2014-03-20
BETHESDA, MD – MARCH 20, 2014 – The massive genome of the loblolly pine—around seven times bigger than the human genome—is the largest genome sequenced to date and the most complete conifer genome sequence ever published. This achievement marks the first big test of a new analysis method that can speed up genome assembly by compressing the raw sequence data 100-fold.
The draft genome is described in the March 2014 issue of GENETICS and the journal Genome Biology.
Loblolly pine is the most commercially important tree species in the United States and the source of most ...
First evidence of plants evolving weaponry to compete in the struggle for selection
2014-03-20
Rutting stags and clawing bears are but two examples of male animals fighting over a mate, but research in New Phytologist has uncovered the first evidence of similar male struggles leading to the evolution of weaponry in plants.
The team, led by Dr. Andrea Cocucci from the Instituto Multidisciplinario de Biologia Vegetal of Argentina, studied a species of milkweed (Apocynaceae), found in tropical climates. While plants do not mate like animals, but rather reproduce via pollinators such as insects or birds, competition between individuals to exploit those pollinators ...
