Genomics is the process of determining the location, sequence, function and interrelationships of all genes in organisms, including, in this case, the genes in microbes and plants. It is among the fastest-growing fields in science.
The Microbial and Plant Genomics Institute housed in the Cargill Building focuses support for basic genomics research. Genomic researchers work to unlock the genetic code that determines how plants and microbes (e.g. bacteria) live and function. Scientists are genomic detectives uncovering the genetic blueprint of plants and microbes. No one can predict exactly where that new knowledge and undiscovered science will lead.
