Analyzing and Using Plant Diversity
Crop genomes are big and frequently quite diverse genetically! The maize genome is about 2.3 billion base pairs in size, and there are well over 100 million variable regions and genes. We actively develop software to analyze these genomes, in order to related diversity to function.
All of our software is open source, and we encourage people from around the world to collaborate on making these better tools.
