In recent years, massively parallel complementary DNA sequencing (RNA sequencing [RNA-Seq]) has emerged as a fast, cost-effective, and robust technology to study entire transcriptomes in various manners. In particular, for non-model organisms and...

Ankenbrand, Markus J.; Weber, Lorenz; Becker, Dirk; Förster, Frank; Bemm, Felix – Presented at the GCB 2016 in Berlin (poster 66, session 2). Nowadays, information about the identity and expression levels of genes are often retrieved by RNA-sequencing (RNA-seq). One ...

SNPs (Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms) are genetic markers whose precise identification is a prerequisite for association studies. Methods to identify them are currently well developed for model species, but rely on the availability of a (good) reference genome, and therefore cannot ...
