The mouse map gets a lot more signposts

Article Abstract:

Researchers have catalogued almost 8.27 million genetic differences that might provide a unique insight into the evolutionary origins of the mouse and also speed up the discovery of disease-causing mutations in mice. The mouse maps might provide fast access to an unparalleled cache of genetic information on numerous lab strains.

To catch a wave

Article Abstract:

The progress in research work by engineers to harvest the mechanical power from waves is discussed. The global resource for wave energy lies between 1 and 10 terawatts compared to 13 terawatts from all sources of world and promise to soon become part of a green-energy portfolio.
