Discussion of Cytogenetic Data for the General Public
What is a cytogenetics?
Cytogenetics is the branch of genetics concerned with the physical structure and appearance of chromosomes.
What is the value of storing and studying cytogenetics data?
Maintaining a warehouse of cytogenetics information makes it easier for researchers to find and use relevant data in their experiments to understand the structure and function of chromosomes.
What is the connection between corn and cytogenetic data?
Specific pieces of the corn genome can be studied, increasing our understanding of how the corn plant's genome constitution and organization affects growth and development. We can use the knowledge of what each chromosomal region does to devise methods to improve the corn plant.
