	<title><![CDATA[The 8000 years old Tibetian gene mutation !!!]]></title>
	<description><![CDATA[<p>A new study has provided insight into how gene mutation around 8,000 years ago helped Tibetans' to survive in the thin air on the Tibetan Plateau, where an average elevation is of 14,800 feet.<br /><br />A study led by University of Utah scientists is the first to find a genetic cause for the adaptation, a single DNA base pair change that dates back 8,000 years and demonstrate how it contributes to the Tibetans' ability to live in low oxygen conditions.</p><p>About 8,000 years ago, the gene EGLN1 changed by a single DNA base pair. Today, a relatively short time later on the scale of human history, 88 percent of Tibetans have the genetic variation, and it was virtually absent from closely related lowland Asians. The findings indicate the genetic variation endows its carriers with an advantage.<br /><br />In those without the adaptation, low oxygen caused their blood to become thick with oxygen-carrying red blood cells, an attempt to feed starved tissues, which could cause long-term complications such as heart failure. The researchers found that the newly identified genetic variation protected Tibetans by decreasing the over-response to low oxygen.</p><p>Reference: http://www.nature.com/nature/journal/v512/n7513/abs/nature13408.html</p>]]></description>

	<title><![CDATA[The Tree That Learned to Read Genomes]]></title>
	<description><![CDATA[<p>Imagine trying to reconstruct a family tree when many family photographs are missing, some names are unclear, and different relatives remember the past differently. This is similar to the challenge scientists face when trying to understand how organisms are related. Their family records are genomes, and the family tree is a phylogenetic tree. With modern sequencing technologies, scientists now have access to thousands of genomes, but comparing them can be difficult, especially when genomes are incomplete or poorly annotated.</p><p>A recent study by Webster and Chapman introduces Buscogeny (https://github.com/Jwebster89/Buscogeny), an open-source bioinformatics pipeline designed to make this process easier. The tool uses BUSCO (Benchmarking Universal Single-Copy Orthologs), which identifies conserved genes that are expected to occur as single copies in particular groups of organisms. These genes act like evolutionary landmarks, allowing researchers to compare genomes and investigate their relationships.</p><p>Buscogeny brings several steps of phylogenomic analysis into one workflow. It identifies BUSCO genes, extracts and aligns their sequences, removes unreliable regions, combines information from multiple genes, and uses the resulting data to construct a phylogenetic tree. It also provides quality-control information, helping researchers identify genomes that may be too incomplete for reliable analysis.</p><p>The authors demonstrate the usefulness of Buscogeny with bacterial and fungal genomes, including Alternaria. This is particularly valuable because fungal genomes can vary greatly in quality and annotation. Ultimately, Buscogeny helps transform massive amounts of genomic data into an understandable evolutionary story. Each DNA sequence becomes a clue, each conserved gene becomes a landmark, and together these clues reveal a picture of how life is connected.</p><p>More at&nbsp;https://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s10123-025-00752-6?</p>]]></description>

	<title><![CDATA[GrapheR !!!]]></title>
	<description><![CDATA[<p>What a wonderful gem <em>GrapheR</em> is.... Oh yes it is. <em>GrapheR</em> is a GUI for base graphics in R by http://www.maximeherve.com/. The package provides a graphical user interface for creating base charts in R. It is ideal for beginners in R, as the user interface is very clear and the code is written along side into a text file, allowing users to recreate the charts directly in the console. <br /><br />Adding and changing legends? Messing around with the plotting window settings? It is much easier/quicker with this GUI than reading the help file and trying to understand the various parameters.<br />Here is a little example using the iris data set.<br /><br />library(GrapheR)<br />data(iris)<br />run.GrapheR()<br /><br />This will bring up a window that helps me to create the chart and tweak the various parameters.</p><p><img src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-NbnCM1dPh3E/U9aW9YxJ9oI/AAAAAAAABgo/gEPzPhOpf2Y/s1600/GrapheR.png" alt="image" width="878" height="868" style="border: 0px; border: 0px;"><br /><br />Finally, I find the underlying R code in a file created by <em>GrapheR</em>. For more details read also the <a href="http://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/GrapheR/index.html" target="_blank">package vignette</a>, which is available in <a href="http://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/GrapheR/vignettes/manual_en.pdf" target="_blank">English</a>, <a href="http://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/GrapheR/vignettes/manual_fr.pdf" target="_blank">French</a> and <a href="http://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/GrapheR/vignettes/manual_de.pdf" target="_blank">German</a>!</p>]]></description>
