github.com - dnaPipeTE (for de-novo assembly & annotation Pipeline for Transposable Elements), is a pipeline designed to find, annotate and quantify Transposable Elements in small samples of NGS datasets. It is very useful to quantify the proportion of TEs...

A new genetic modification technology called NgAgo has some researchers really excited. How does it compare to CRISPR?

bioinformaticsworkbook.org - Genetic map, as the name suggest is simply knowing the relative positions of specific sequences across the genome. There are various methods to generate them, but most popular method is to use a cross between the known parents and examining their...
