"More than 45,000 putative protein-coding genes were identified." "[Researchers] tentatively identified a first-draft reference set
of 45,555 protein-coding gene loci in the Populus
nuclear genome (www.jgi.doe.gov/poplar)
using a variety of ab initio, homology-based,
and expressed sequence tag (EST)–based methods
(14–17) (table S5)." "To further test for variation in gene expression
among duplicated genes, [researchers] examined
whole-genome oligonucleotide microarray data
containing the 45,555 promoted genes (9)." |
