Cytogenetic and Genome Research

Aims & Scope

During the last decades, Cytogenetic and Genome Research has been the leading forum for original reports and reviews in human, animal, insect, and plant cytogenetics, including clinical, molecular, and comparative cytogenetics.

With the advance of microarray and high throughput sequencing technologies, many of its papers have centered on genome research, including chromosome structure and function, genome evolution, human disease pathogenesis, cancer genomics, gene regulation and expression, epigenetics, and related areas.

Also featured are recent international reports on human and animal chromosome nomenclature.

In addition to regular issues, the journal has been publishing a series of topical issues on a broad variety of themes.
