image: Schematic representation of single-cell genomics, in which total DNA is isolated from single cells captured in nature and used to generate a draft genome sequence of the organism and all intracellular DNA. This image relates to an article that appeared in the May 6, 2011, issue of Science, published by AAAS. The study, by Hwan Su Yoon of Bigelow Laboratory for Ocean Sciences in West Boothbay Harbor, Maine, and colleagues, was titled, "Single-Cell Genomics Reveals Organismal Interactions in Uncultivated Marine Protists." view more
