Cloning of genes from genomic DNA Part 1 and 2: DNA Isolation
... What is the polymerase chain reaction? Our gene of interest is a minute part of the genome. If your gene is 2 kbp long, it would represent approximately 0.00001% of the human genome or 0.0002% of the fly genome. Even though your gene is present in isolated genomic DNA, it is difficult to study it or ...

Genome evolution
Genome evolution is the process by which a genome changes in structure (sequence) or size over time. The study of genome evolution involves multiple fields such as structural analysis of the genome, the study of genomic parasites, gene and ancient genome duplications, polyploidy, and comparative genomics. Genome evolution is a constantly changing and evolving field due to the steadily growing number of sequenced genomes, both prokaryotic and eukaryotic, available to the scientific community and the public at large.
