The first transcriptome of T. thermophila was sequenced and released in 2012 (Wang et al., 2009; Xiong et al., 2012), which identified untranslated regions (UTR), novel transcripts and alternative splicing successfully and re-annotated T. thermophila's genome more accurately.
Peach (Prunus persica L. Batsch) was definitively positioned as a new fruit model when its genome was sequenced and released in 2010 by an international initiative [ 1, 2].
The draft genome of T. rubripes was sequenced and released as the second vertebrate genome in 2002, and the draft genome of Tetraodon nigroviridis (green spotted puffer) was released in 2004.
With the development of sequencing technology, more and more plant genomes were sequenced and released, which provides an opportune chance for researchers to study plant tandem duplicated genes further.
Following the determination of the complete genomic sequence of the L. interrogans serovar Lai strain Lai (#56601) in 2003 [ 8], the genome of another L. interrogans serovar Copenhageni strain Fiocruz L1-130 of the same serogroup Icterohaemorrhagiae was sequenced and released [ 9, 10].
For genomic analysis, HOMD provides comprehensive set of analysis tools and maintains frequently updated annotations for all the human oral microbial genomes that have been sequenced and publicly released.
Recently, its genome has been sequenced, and the sequences have been released in the form of scaffolds.
Recently, a number of Paenibacillus genomes, representing strains isolated from different environments (e.g. soil, honeybees, fermented food), have been sequenced and their genomes have been released ([ 16- 25]); however, only a few studies have reported genomic characterization and phylogeny of the sequenced genomes [ 26- 31].
