Index Summary New possibilities have been brought about by the stunning number of genomic sequences becoming available for photosynthetic organisms. This new world of whole genome sequence data spans the phyla from photosynthetic microbes to algae to higher plants. These whole genome projects are intrinsically interesting, but also inform the variety of other molecular sequence databases including the recent 'meta-genomic' sequencing efforts that analyze entire communities of organisms. As impressive as they are, are obviously only the beginning of the effort to decipher the biological meaning encoded withi Analysis genomica genomics evolutie evolution fotosynthese photosynthesis plantengenetica plant genetics moleculaire genetica molecular genetics Genome informatics Genoominformatica Bibliography Includes bibliographical references and indexes Subject Photosynthesis -- Genetic aspects.
