Research Projects
A sequence-indexed Reverse Genetics Resource for Maize: a Set of Lines with Single Ds-GFP Insertions Spread Throughout the Genome
This NSF-funded grant, provides invaluable resources for researchers to fully exploit the maize genome organization. The availability of a mutant line in which a single gene has been disrupted by a green fluorescent labeled Ds transposon or Dsg gives biologists a powerful tool in understanding the action of that gene. To this end, my lab has carried out bioinformatics analysis for sequence assembly, annotation, and mapping of millions of short reads to the maize reference genome. More specifically we developed a software package, InsertionMapper, to extract Dsg transposon junctions from the terabytes of NextGen sequencing data and map them to the maize genome. We also created a web-searchable database hosted at Montclair State University, link below.
