In the past 20 years, there has been a steady increase in the rate of release of cultivars containing genes from CWR, and their contribution should only increase as the development of molecular technologies makes identification and utilization of diverse germplasm more efficient [2] [5].
Detection of pathogens from environmental samples is gaining momentum through the development of molecular technologies.
With the development of molecular technologies and 'omics' tools, microarray studies have become a useful strategy for the global analysis of plant gene expression.
However, to date there is no genome reference sequence to facilitate the development of molecular technologies that utilize high-throughput characterizations of gene expression and genetic variation.
BARC (Biobanking Analysis Resource Catalogue ): To keep researchers in academia and industry up to date with the rapid development of molecular technologies in the various '-omic' fields, the Biobanking Analysis Resource Catalogue, BARC, 29 has recently been created.
Finally, another promising development is the use of molecular technology that allows large-scale gene expression profiling.
In the recent years, with the development of molecular biology technology, new methods for human identification to forensic purposes, based on genetic differences among the animal species have been proposed.
With the development of molecular sequencing technology, the taxonomic status of S. sulcatum and other species of Strombidium have been reassessed (Modeo et al., 2003, McManus et al., 2010, Li et al., 2013).
