Tech-Boosted Genome Assembly Helps Resolve Closely Related Microbes in Metagenomic Sample
Led by researchers from the USDA and UCSD, the team assembled genomes with the help of PacBio's HiFi reads and Phase Genomics' Hi-C assays.
Bio-Rad Wins USDA Food Safety Testing Contract
The contract covers Bio-Rad's iQ-Check RT-PCR pathogen detection test kits, which cover pathogens including Salmonella spp. and Listeria monocytogenes.
3M Wins USDA Food Safety Testing Contract
The USDA Food Safety and Inspection Service will use the company's 3M Molecular Detection System for pathogen detection.
USDA Awards UC Davis $2.5M Grant for Cow Genomics Project
The multi-year cow genomics project aims to improve genetic selection and identify functional elements in the cow's genome.
With FALCON-Phase, investigators used PacBio long reads and Hi-C data from Phase Genomics to assemble a haplotype-phased, diploid genome for a hybrid bull.
