They found a high proportion of these endogenous viral sequences of a new genus (between 0.5% and 1% of the genome) in 21 flowering plants, while they were absent in the genomes of more primitive plants such as moss, green algae or selaginella (spikemoss). Targeted analysis of the genomes of the ...
What if we could predict how to increase drought resistance in plants? Or offer patients personalized medicine? Researchers are looking for answers to these questions and more using a plant or animal’s obvious traits, called phenotype prediction, a field that will be discussed in a free workshop presented by the University of Florida Forest ...
