  2. Yeast artificial chromosome - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yeast_artificial_chromosome

    Yeast artificial chromosomes (YACs) are genetically engineered chromosomes derived from the DNA of the yeast, Saccharomyces cerevisiae, which is then ligated into a bacterial plasmid. By inserting large fragments of DNA, from 100–1000 kb, the inserted sequences can be cloned and physically mapped using a process called chromosome walking .

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vector_(molecular_biology)

    Artificial chromosomes are manufactured chromosomes in the context of yeast artificial chromosomes (YACs), bacterial artificial chromosomes (BACs), or human artificial chromosomes (HACs). An artificial chromosome can carry a much larger DNA fragment than other vectors. [9] YACs and BACs can carry a DNA fragment up to 300,000 nucleotides long.

  4. Plant genome assembly - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plant_genome_assembly

    A genetic map was constructed to anchor the assembled genome. 72.8% of the assembled sequences were successfully anchored onto the seven chromosomes. Another plant genome that combined NGS with Sanger sequencing was the genome of Theobroma cacao, 2010, [34] an economically important tropical fruit tree crop and the primary source of cocoa. The ...

  5. P1-derived artificial chromosome - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/P1-derived_artificial...

    A P1-derived artificial chromosome, or PAC, is a DNA construct derived from the DNA of P1 bacteriophages and Bacterial artificial chromosome. It can carry large amounts (about 100–300 kilobases ) of other sequences for a variety of bioengineering purposes in bacteria .

  6. Genomic library - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Genomic_library

    Yeast artificial chromosomes (YACs) are linear DNA molecules containing the necessary features of an authentic yeast chromosome, including telomeres, a centromere, and an origin of replication. Large inserts of DNA can be ligated into the middle of the YAC so that there is an “arm” of the YAC on either side of the insert.

  7. Alternation of generations - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alternation_of_generations

    In plants both phases are multicellular: the haploid sexual phase – the gametophyte – alternates with a diploid asexual phase – the sporophyte. A mature sporophyte produces haploid spores by meiosis, a process which reduces the number of chromosomes to half, from two sets to one. The resulting haploid spores germinate and grow into ...

  8. Human artificial chromosome - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Human_artificial_chromosome

    A human artificial chromosome (HAC) is a microchromosome that can act as a new chromosome in a population of human cells. That is, instead of 46 chromosomes, the cell could have 47 with the 47th being very small, roughly 6–10 megabases (Mb) in size instead of 50–250 Mb for natural chromosomes, and able to carry new genes introduced by human researchers.

  9. List of sequenced plant genomes - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_sequenced_plant...

    A total of 949 scaffolds assembled to a final size of 656.77 Mb, with a scaffold N50 of 3.43 Mb (v1), and then further improved to seven pseudo‐chromosomes using Hi‐C sequencing data (v2; scaffold N50: 93.2 Mb, total size in chromosomes: 639.6 Mb).
