WSU horticulture researchers work with scientists nationally to uncover secrets of the Rosaceae genome family, including roses, apples, almonds, cherries, pears, raspberries, strawberries.
By Eric Sorensen, WSU News PULLMAN, Wash.- As weird animals go, the mangrove killifish is in a class of its own.
SPOKANE, Wash. – Researchers from across Washington State University are invited to apply by April 10 for a pilot grant to support their next-generation sequencing projects. Award notification will be April 24.
With completion of the human genome project, researchers know a lot about our genetic makeup. How that translates into action in our bodies in the form of proteins is the next frontier of understanding. In the field of proteomics, however, researchers are limited by separation techniques. Blood, for instance, is thought to contain more than […]
Improved apples, peaches, pears and cherries at market sooner. This is one benefit of research by WSU bioinformaticist Dorrie Main.Piece by piece, Main, an associate professor of horticulture and a scientist in the WSU Agricultural Research Center, is mapping the DNA mosaic of the rosaceous family. The family includes Washington’s largest crop–apples–and other tree fruit […]
