Their findings suggest that ancient copies of genes can retain their functionality and still influence traits of interest after tens of millions of years. (sciencedaily.com)
We are interested in genome evolution, in particular identifying genome sequences that differ significantly between or within species and their relationship to biomedical traits of interest. (gladstone.org)
The basic laws of inheritance are important because they can reveal how a genetic trait of interest or a disorder can be passed from generation to generation. (ashg.org)
