| Method |
"Using whole-genome 454 sequencing, [researchers] assembled gene sequences
representing an essentially complete gene set, and a significant number
were assigned to the A, B or D genome. Although the assemblies are
fragmentary, they form a powerful framework for identifying genes,
accelerating further genome sequencing and facilitating genome-scale
analyses." |
| Comments |
"[Researchers] estimated the number of genes in the hexaploid wheat genome to
range between 94,000 and 96,000 (Supplementary Information, section
2.10)." |
