Full genome re-sequencing reveals a novel circadian clock mutation in Arabidopsis.

abstract：BACKGROUND:The wealth of genomic data in bacteria is helping microbiologists understand the factors involved in gene innovation. Among these, the expansion and reduction of gene families appears to have a fundamental role in this, but the factors influencing gene family size are unclear. RESULTS:The relative content o...
