Combining integrative genomics and systems biology approaches has revealed new and conserved features in the genome of human herpesvirus 6.

A compendium of critical genomic numbers for viruses through the lenses of different viral classification systems.

Research into genomic imprinting has provided a foundation for the study of epigenetic mechanisms, especially during development, and has also shed light on a range of rare genetic disorders and common diseases.

Two studies suggest that a determined adversary may be able to obtain genetic information that they should not have permission to access from some genealogy databases.

Similar patterns of genomic divergence have been observed in the evolution of plant species separated by oceans.

An EASAC working group on genome editing recommends that regulators should focus on specific applications of these new techniques rather than attempting to regulate genome editing itself as a new technology.

Trait-based metagenomic analysis of an ecosystem fertilization experiment shows that genomic traits that affect the costs and rates of biochemical information-processing mediate community assembly.

Gene knockouts provide valuable genetic fuel for climate adaptation in nature.

Genetic predisposition to uterine leiomyomas arises from variation at loci for genetic stability and genitourinary development, and in part explains the frequent occurrence of the condition in women with African origin.

Analyses combining genomic and epidemiological data of Mycobacterium bovis, which causes bovine tuberculosis, revealed evidence of transmission within and between cattle and badger populations.
