Chinese researchers map pan-genome of rice

China Daily  

BEIJING -- Chinese researchers have presented nearly complete genomes of 13 representative wild rice species and constructed an ultra pan-genome map of rice. By integrating with four previously published genomes for pan-genome analysis, the researchers from the Jiangxi Academy of Agricultural Sciences and Hebei University identified a total of 101,723 gene families of rice. Additionally, the researchers identified 7,048 resistance …

DNA project gives scientists diverse genome for comparison

Associated Press  

For two decades, scientists have been comparing every person’s full set of DNA they study to a template that relies mostly on genetic material from one man affectionately known as “the guy from Buffalo.” But they’ve long known that this template for comparison, or “reference genome,” has serious limits because it doesn’t reflect the spectrum of human diversity. “We’re missing …

Human diversity captured in new reference ‘pangenome’

Hindustan Times  

The human reference genome has just got an upgrade: it is now a “pangenome” to represent more diversity between various individuals and populations. The upgrade from scientists on the Human Pangenome Reference Consortium, funded by the US National Human Genome Research Institute and involving researchers from American and European institutions, has been described in a set of six papers published …
