image: Professor Werren (right) and Dr. Desjardins (left) discuss completion of the Nasonia Genome project. On the screen behind them is the linkage map of the Nasonia genome, showing a mapping of components of the genome on the five chromosomes of Nasonia. This image relates to an article that appeared in the January 15, 2010, issue of Science, published by AAAS. The study, by Dr. J.H. Werren at University of Rochester in Rochester, N.Y., and colleagues, was titled, "Functional and Evolutionary Insights from the Genomes of Three Parasitoid Nasonia Species." view more
