Technological advances have transformed #sequencing, but costs and timescales can still be limiting, especially in library generation.

Earlham Institute's updated Low Input, Transposase Enabled (LITE) protocol offers low-cost, high-throughput whole #genome sequencing with reduced DNA input. 💻🧬🧪
LITE2 takes affordable genome sequencing to a new level

High hopes for short corn. Plants bred or engineered to be short can stand up better to windstorms. They could also boost yields and benefit the environment.
News from Science (good article).

Wow, really neat new #OA paper from Kristen Ruegg's group using low coverage whole #genome sequencing to infer #migratory connectivity among wintering American Redstarts (Setophaga ruticilla), assigning them to breeding populations!

Hello! I'm a PhD student at the Earlham Institute, Norwich UK.
I'm working on uncovering the genetic basis of traits in herb crops.
Outside of work my interests include birding, botany, running and cycling.
