Genomics: Decoding the blueprints for Australia's biodiversity
• Every living organism has its own genetic ‘blueprint’: the source code for how it grows, functions and reproduces. • This blueprint is known as a genome. • When scientists sequen
Bringing the 'functionally extinct' American chestnut back from the dead
• American chestnut nearly wiped out by two Asian fungal pathogens, killing ~3 billion trees. • Fungus kills saplings before they can seed, leaving chestnut functionally extinct in
