Computational Genetics And Genomics

This second edition integrates the more technical and mathematical aspects of bioinformatics with concrete examples of their application to current research problems in molecular, cellular and evolutionary biology. This broad, unified approach is made possible, in large part, by the very wide scope of Dr. Xia’s own research experience. The integration of genomics, proteomics and transcriptomics into a single volume makes this book required reading for anyone entering the new and emerging fields of Systems Biology and Evolutionary Bioinformatics.

In the last decade DNA sequencing costs have decreased over a magnitude, largely because of increasing throughput by incremental advances in tools, technologies and process improvements.

Editors: Kadarmideen, Haja N. (Ed.)
Presents on how to obtain and interpret multi-omics data sets to improve animal breeding
Provides in-depth insights into state-of-the-art bioinformatical methods and their applications
Together with Vol 1 offers a comprehensive overview on Systems Biology in Veterinary Sciences

This contributed volume explores the emerging intersection between big data analytics and genomics. Recent sequencing technologies have enabled high-throughput sequencing data generation for genomics resulting in several international projects which have led to massive genomic data accumulation at an unprecedented pace.
