  2. Gene bank - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gene_bank

    The active gene bank of the International Crops Research Institute for the Semi-Arid Tropics in Patancheru, India. A gene bank is a type of biorepository that serves to preserve the genetic information of organisms. Gene banks are often used for storing the genetic material of species that are endangered or close to extinction.

  3. GenBank - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GenBank

    The GenBank sequence database is an open access, annotated collection of all publicly available nucleotide sequences and their protein translations. It is produced and maintained by the National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI; a part of the National Institutes of Health in the United States) as part of the International Nucleotide Sequence Database Collaboration (INSDC).

  4. Gene-centered view of evolution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gene-centered_view_of...

    The gene-centered view of evolution is a synthesis of the theory of evolution by natural selection, the particulate inheritance theory, and the rejection of transmission of acquired characters. [ 6 ] [ 7 ] It states that those alleles whose phenotypic effects successfully promote their own propagation will be favorably selected relative to ...

  5. Germplasm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Germplasm

    As genetic information moves largely online there is a transition in germplasm information from a physical location (seed banks, cryopreserving) to online platforms containing genetic sequences. In addition there are issues in the collection germplasm information and where they are shared.

  6. Polyelectrolyte theory of the gene - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polyelectrolyte_theory_of...

    The polyelectrolyte theory of the gene reasons that DNA can maintain its shape regardless of mutations because the negative charges on the phosphate backbone dominate the physical interactions of the molecule to such a degree that changes in the nucleic acid sequence, the encoded information, do not affect the overall physical behavior of the ...

  7. DNA bank - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DNA_bank

    DNA banking is the secure, long-term storage of an individual's genetic material. DNA is most commonly extracted from blood , but can also be obtained from saliva and other tissues . DNA banks allow for conservation of genetic material and comparative analysis of an individual's genetic information.

  9. Natural genetic engineering - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Natural_genetic_engineering

    Natural genetic engineering (NGE) is a class of process proposed by molecular biologist James A. Shapiro to account for novelty created in the course of biological evolution. Shapiro developed this work in several peer-reviewed publications from 1992 onwards, and later in his 2011 book Evolution: A View from the 21st Century , which has been ...
