The genome of B. rapa is the smallest, at ca. 500 Mb [ 3], and a genome sequencing project is under way, with both sequences and sequence annotations in the public domain The lineages of B. rapa and B. oleracea diverged ca. 3.7 Mya [ 4] and genetic mapping has confirmed that the overall organisation of their genomes is highly collinear [ 5].
The recent achievements in genome-wide mapping of chromatin marks have confirmed that some histone modifications are usually associated with transcriptionally active, or potentially active, genes (for example, H3K9ac, H3K4me3), while others are typical of silent genes (for example, H3K9me2/3, H3K27me3) [ 24, 25].
Genetic fate mapping studies have confirmed that differentiated resting astrocytes can proliferate following injury with a subset expressing nestin (Buffo et al., 2008), supporting a capacity for astroglia to de-differentiate.
All the mutant loci mapped in this work have confirmed linkage to at least one G4 or H2 marker (not shown if the closest flanking markers were selected from outside the sets).
Several genetic maps based on interspecific crosses have confirmed that sex determinism in the genus Vitis is under the control of a single major genomic region located on chromosome 2, close to the SSR marker VVIB23 [ 15– 17].
High-throughput techniques, including array and sequencing-based technologies, now provide genome-scale DNA methylation maps (also called methylomes), which have confirmed aberrant methylation as a hallmark of all cancer types and are used to identify novel methylation-based cancer biomarkers.
In recent years, observations made by the lightning mapping array of the New Mexico Institute of Mining and Technology NMTT) have confirmed that some severe thunderstorms can have inverted dipole charge structures.
31P NMR by spin echo mapping and 31P MAS NMR have confirmed an interaction of the VPO precursor with Nb and of the NbPO amorphous material with V, as evidenced by EDX-STEM.

It has been previously suggested the ITC neurons are striatal in origin [58] and recent studies have confirmed this by mapping lineage-specific transcription factors [59], [60].
