Welcome to BMC Genomics published by BioMed Central
BMC Genomics is an open access journal publishing original peer-reviewed research articles in all aspects of genome-scale analysis, functional genomics, and proteomics.
BMC Genomics (ISSN 1471-2164) is indexed/tracked/covered by PubMed, MEDLINE, BIOSIS, CAS, EMBASE, Scopus, Zoological Record, Thomson Reuters (ISI) and Google Scholar.
BMC Genomics 2009, 10 :602
Comparing the in vivo and in vitro nucleosome occupancy around transcription factor binding sites in yeast identifies four distinct modes of nucleosome positioning, associated with different promoter properties and patterns of gene regulation.
BMC Genomics 2009, 10 :598
Atypical non-cloverleaf tRNAs are computationally predicted from the mitochondrial sequence of acariform mite Dermatophagoides farina, and rank among the shortest known tRNAs, having no D-arm and a short and unstable T-arm.
BMC Genomics 2009, 10 :587
Candidate genes for peach fruit texture, flavor, pigmentation and chilling injury resistance have been anchored to a linkage map by bin-mapping to give a snapshot of the location of over 100 potentially useful loci for selective breeding.
BMC Genomics 2009, 10 :582
A high-density consensus genetic map of barley based only on complete and error-free datasets and genic markers, enables a high resolution comparison of barley and rice genomes and will aid marker-assisted breeding and association studies.
BMC Genomics 2009, 10 :568
Recent advances in quantitative trait analysis of metabolites enable the detection of correlations between metabolic diversity in rice accessions and local genetic variations, illustrating an approach that will help elucidate complex regulatory networks in plant metabolic systems.
