The NCEP Climate Forecast System Reanalysis
- S. Saha, S. Moorthi, +49 authors Mitch D. Goldberg
- Environmental Science
- 1 August 2010
The NCEP Climate Forecast System Reanalysis (CFSR) was completed for the 31-yr period from 1979 to 2009, in January 2010. The CFSR was designed and executed as a global, high-resolution coupled… Expand
Sequencing of 50 Human Exomes Reveals Adaptation to High Altitude
No Genetic Vertigo Peoples living in high altitudes have adapted to their situation (see the Perspective by Storz). To identify gene regions that might have contributed to high-altitude adaptation in… Expand
A Draft Sequence of the Rice Genome (Oryza sativa L. ssp. japonica)
The genome of the japonica subspecies of rice, an important cereal and model monocot, was sequenced and assembled by whole-genome shotgun sequencing. The assembled sequence covers 93% of the… Expand
Comparative genomics reveals insights into avian genome evolution and adaptation
- Guo-Jie Zhang, C. Li, +103 authors J. Wang

- Science
- 12 December 2014
Birds are the most species-rich class of tetrapod vertebrates and have wide relevance across many research fields. We explored bird macroevolution using full genomes from 48 avian species… Expand
A User's Guide to the Encyclopedia of DNA Elements (ENCODE)
- R. Myers, J. Stamatoyannopoulos, +311 authors Brian A. Risk
- Biology, Medicine
- PLoS biology
- 1 April 2011
The mission of the Encyclopedia of DNA Elements (ENCODE) Project is to enable the scientific and medical communities to interpret the human genome sequence and apply it to understand human biology… Expand
A Draft Sequence for the Genome of the Domesticated Silkworm (Bombyx mori)
- Qingyou Xia, Z. Zhou, +90 authors H. Yang
- Biology, Medicine
- Science
- 10 December 2004
We report a draft sequence for the genome of the domesticated silkworm (Bombyx mori), covering 90.9% of all known silkworm genes. Our estimated gene count is 18,510, which exceeds the 13,379 genes… Expand
Distinct DNA methylomes of newborns and centenarians
- H. Heyn, N. Li, +20 authors M. Esteller
- Biology, Medicine
- Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences
- 11 June 2012
Human aging cannot be fully understood in terms of the constrained genetic setting. Epigenetic drift is an alternative means of explaining age-associated alterations. To address this issue, we… Expand
An integrated encyclopedia of DNA elements in the human genome
- I. Dunham, A. Kundaje, +440 authors Lucas Lochovsky
- Biology
- 1 September 2012
The human genome encodes the blueprint of life, but the function of the vast majority of its nearly three billion bases is unknown. The Encyclopedia of DNA Elements (ENCODE) project has… Expand
Population-based metagenomics analysis reveals markers for gut microbiome composition and diversity
- A. Zhernakova, A. Kurilshikov, +28 authors J. Fu
- Biology, Medicine
- Science
- 29 April 2016
“Normal” for the gut microbiota For the benefit of future clinical studies, it is critical to establish what constitutes a “normal” gut microbiome, if it exists at all. Through fecal samples and… Expand
An Aboriginal Australian Genome Reveals Separate Human Dispersals into Asia
- M. Rasmussen, Xiaosen Guo, +55 authors E. Willerslev
- Biology, Medicine
- Science
- 7 October 2011
Whole-genome data indicate that early modern humans expanded into Australia 62,000 to 75,000 years ago. We present an Aboriginal Australian genomic sequence obtained from a 100-year-old lock of hair… Expand
