As the tree of life is populated with sequenced genomes ever more densely, the new challenge is the accurate and consistent annotation of entire clades of genomes. Researchers from the University of Greifswald address this problem with a new approach ...

from Science Network WA by Teresa Belcher SOFTWARE developed by a WA PhD student is quickly and accurately locating genes and correcting gene sequences in disease-causing fungi. Alison Testa from Curtin University’s Centre for Crop and Disease Management (CCDM) created ...

The impact of gene annotation quality on functional and comparative genomics makes gene prediction an important process, particularly in non-model species, including many fungi. Sets of homologous protein sequences are rarely complete with respect to the fungal species of interest ...

Locating the protein-coding genes in novel genomes is essential to understanding and exploiting the genomic information but it is still difficult to accurately predict all the genes. The recent availability of detailed information about transcript structure from high-throughput sequencing of ...
