Method |
Primary source abstract: "Sequencing of multiple related species followed by comparative genomics analysis constitutes a powerful approach for the systematic understanding of any genome. Here, [investigators] use the genomes of 12 Drosophila species for the de novo discovery of functional elements in the fly." |
Comments |
P.30 right column top paragraph: "For example, Stark et al. (primary source) estimated that there are, on average, 124 target genes for each of the 67 Drosophila transcription factors they analyzed." |
