BMC Genomics 2013, 14:95Genomic insights into Geospiza
204 years after Charles Darwin’s birth, sequencing of the genome of the Darwin’s Finch Geospiza magnirostris reveals over 13,000 predicted genes, of which two under positive selection may have contributed to beak morphology evolution, which so interested Darwin.

BMC Genomics 2012, 13:585Pig Genome: RH maps play their part in assembly
High density radiation hybrid maps of the pig genome were constructed by SNP array genotyping to provide accurate physical maps for each pig autosome and were used to identify problems and aid genome assembly.

BMC Genomics 2012, 13:583Pig Genome: Genotyping for backfat thickness
Genotyping in Italian Large White pigs finds association of SNPs and genes with backfat thickness, and Gene Ontology terms associated with significant markers match findings from previous studies of human obesity.

Scope
BMC Genomics is an open access, peer-reviewed journal that considers articles on all aspects of genome-scale analysis, functional genomics, and proteomics.
It is journal policy to publish work deemed by peer reviewers to be a coherent and sound addition to scientific knowledge and to put less emphasis on interest levels, provided that the research constitutes a useful contribution to the field.
