The journal focuses on genome studies in all species, including genetic and physical mapping, DNA sequencing, gene discovery, informatics, statistical and mathematical methods and genome structure and function, as well as technological innovations and applications. New data in these areas are published as research papers, review articles, short reports, and summaries of physical mapping and large-scale sequencing projects. GENOME RESEARCH incorporates PCR METHODS & APPLICATIONS, which for the past 4 years has published practical papers describing amplification techniques and their use. "
