  • [New] At a time when economic inequality is surging worldwide, heritable genetic modification could inscribe new forms of inequality and discrimination onto the human genome. Center for Genetics and Society
  • [New] By application, the microbial whole genome sequencing segment is expected to grow rapidly during 2025-2034. Yahoo Finance
  • Additionally, the discovery of genome-editing technologies such as Clustered Regularly Interspaced Short Palindromic Repeats (CRISPR) has also opened up new avenues for India's biotechnology sector with the potential of bypassing some controversies associated with conventional transgenic methods. PubMed Central (PMC)
  • The potential of CRISPR-Cas genome editing has been well demonstrated in India's trailblazing success with the development and release of its first genome-edited rice varieties-DRR Rice 100 and Pusa DST Rice 1. PubMed Central (PMC)
  • To date, more than 2500 miRNAs have been identified in the human genome, and given their ability to regulate up to 30% of all protein-coding genes, including epigenetic enzyme-coding genes, they are recognised as modulators of chromatin conformation (e.g. miRNA-34a, miRNA-204 and miRNA-125b). BioMed Central
  • With current projections of tropical habitat fragmentation and species loss set to continue in tropical regions, genome-centric management strategies will likely garner increasing adoption over the coming century. / Australia BioMed Central
  • Recent efforts by the Human Pangenome Reference Consortium and the Chinese Pangenome Consortium have demonstrated the potential of pangenomes in resolving structurally divergent regions of the human genome. Nature
  • Eventually, one of the genetic modifications scientists hope to introduce into the Asian elephant's genome is that of EEHV resistance. Viterbi Conversations in Ethics
