Quotes

...sequence of maize is a huge step forward in getting at the functions of genes that will be useful in developing new bioenergy crops," McCann said. "We will be able to identify mutants in key genes of interest and then assess how mutation changes the plant cell wall and if those changes are useful."
..."If you ask a kid [with Down syndrome] to enter a room from one door and find a toy, based on a cue like color, they can find it," he says. "But if you change the door they enter, and don't give them a cue, it takes them much longer to find the toy."
While they're arguably the most important mutations, these beneficial mutations are rare. "The innovation of our proposal to the NSF is that we came up with a good way to find them that's easy to do" says Cooper...
- (Rx.com) "Bacterial efflux pumps have traditionally been studied as low-level drug resistance determinants (see also Tuberculosis). Recent insights have suggested that efflux systems are often involved with fundamental cellular physiological processes, suggesting that drug extrusion may be a secondary function" investigators in Vancouver, Canada report...
