Biomarker Technologies publishes research on genomes' evolution and genetics

Biomarker Technologies (BMKGene) has published a series of studies that delve into the evolution and genetics of various organisms' genomes. The company states these projects leverage advanced sequencing and bioinformatics analysis to achieve comprehensive understanding.

Recent publications include an analysis of the Nautilus pompilius genome, which illuminates eye evolution and biomineralization. Another study examines comparative genome analyses in cotton, highlighting transposon-mediated genome expansion and the architecture of 3D genomic folding. Such genomic research is critical for understanding heritable traits and improving species.

Additionally, BMKGene highlighted research on the genomic characteristics and evolution of rye, as well as the evolutionary origin and domestication history of goldfish (Carassius auratus). These works utilize a range of high-throughput sequencing technologies, including PacBio, Illumina, Nanopore, and Hi-C, alongside transcriptomics and proteomics.

The company also emphasizes the application of specific techniques like SLAF-Seq in genetic marker discovery, particularly for large-scale population studies. These methods are crucial for identifying genetic bases for diseases and for advancements in crop breeding.

BMKGene provides its services to researchers and institutions in the fields of genomics and bioinformatics, offering a broad portfolio of solutions.
