Bioinformatics approach to Boar Taint
Meat products obtained from intact male pigs often produce offensive smell or odour which is recognized as a complex genetic trait called boar taint.Androstenone and Skatole in the fat primarily cause boar taint. Metabolism of androstenone and sex steroids share a common pathway which makes ...Tags: Sequencing, DNA, Whole genome re-sequencing, Boar taint, androstenone, skatole, pig, QTL, SNP, haplotype, fine mapping, SSC

320000 viruses in mammals yet to sequenced in future!!!
With current biological technique improvements, finally it is now possible to look at millions of unknown viruses at genomic level and understand the mechanism. According to available data, close to 70 per cent of emerging viral diseases such as HIV/AIDS, West Nile, Ebola, SARS, and influenza, ar...Tags: Sequencing, RNA, DNA, Genome, Virus, Mammals, flying fox, HIV
