Researchers may be wasting resources following false trails due to variations in interpretative methods.

Join Sarah Bagby (Case Western Reserve University) and Simon Roux (JGI) as they talk about their recent work on a time series from Sweden’s Stordalen Mire. By looking at Mobile Genetic Elements, or MG...

Analyzing how giant viruses—and interns—respond to environmental change.

Symbiotic relationships of microorganisms are predicted and cataloged with a machine learning tool.

Genome-building with SynOMICS reveals hidden rules of the genetic code and opens doors to virus-proof, industrially useful bacteria.

The CSP New Investigator Call is for investigators and research initiatives new to the JGI. Projects must be independent of ongoing JGI proposals, and lead PIs cannot have been lead PI on any previous...

Housekeeping genes maintain robust expression across cell types despite dynamic transcription factor fluctuations, yet their haploinsufficiency is associated with many tissue-specific developmental di...

This Genome Watch article highlights the importance of predictive models for identifying and characterizing the roles of phage tail-like particles as a tool for bioengineering and biocontrol.

The Community Science Program Large Scale Call is focused on genomic science projects that address sustainable biofuel and bioproducts production.

This study reveals how plant-associated bacteria dynamically reprogram gene expression during root colonization, using a new high-throughput approach that overcomes low bacterial biomass and interfere...

Streamlined genome with precise gene targeting transforms oil-producing alga into a powerful platform for developing ​​bio-based industrial products.

The Community Science Program Large Scale Call is focused on genomic science projects that address sustainable biofuel and bioproducts production.

EMBL and its community are deeply saddened by the death of Peer Bork, the organisation’s Interim Director General.

We humans are a delicate bunch. We don’t have bark, boney exo-plates, or lush fur to protect us from hostile environments, so we have to steal what other creatures produce just to survive in regions a...

ALT: a man wearing a plaid shirt and a purple hat is saying here we go .

Enhancers control tissue-specific gene expression across metazoans. Although deep learning has enabled enhancer prediction and design in mammalian cell lines and invertebrate systems, it remains uncle...

Join the Joint Genome Institute and the Environmental Molecular Sciences Laboratory for “Empowering Automated Laboratories: Integrating Experimentation with Data.”

Abstract. Comparisons of long-read and short-read (meta)genome assemblies typically show that short-read sequence assemblies are less error-prone, but stru

A single letter in the DNA code could change the course of human development
