The human genome is organised in 46 chromosomes, where all but the x and y chromosomes in men are present in two copies. This means that a person with a faulty gene on one chromosome most often has a ...

Structural variants (SVs) are alterations in the DNA sequence that involve large-scale changes, typically longer than 50 base pairs. Advances in long-read sequencing have significantly increased ...

A University of Alberta research team has found a genetic variant that can be used to identify which patients with pulmonary arterial hypertension need the most urgent care. "This could potentially ...

The abundance of viral DNA was measured in DNA sequenced from blood and saliva samples in biobanks, revealing strong ...

The study of genetic variation and growth traits in tree species is crucial for understanding the mechanisms that underpin forest productivity, resilience and adaptation. Recent advances in molecular ...

Knowing how human DNA changes over generations is essential to estimating genetic disease risks and understanding how we evolved. But some of the most changeable regions of our DNA have been ...
