Cytogenetics' role in the chromosome-level genomic era
Original: The role of cytogenetics in the chromosome-level genomic era
Nature has published a piece examining how cytogenetics — the microscopic study of chromosomes — remains relevant as genome research moves into a chromosome-level genomic era. The article argues that classical cytogenetic methods still contribute to genome assembly, validation and the study of chromosome structure and evolution alongside modern sequencing technologies.
Why now: Genomics researchers are discussing how traditional cytogenetic approaches fit alongside new chromosome-level sequencing methods.
