- To understand the biology and evolution of ruminants, the cattle genome was sequenced to about sevenfold coverage. The cattle genome contains a minimum of 22,000 genes, with a core set of 14,345 orthologs shared among seven mammalian species of which 1217 are absent or undetected in noneutherian (marsupial or monotreme) genomes. Cattle-specific evolutionary breakpoint regions in chromosomes have a higher density of segmental duplications, enrichment of repetitive elements, and species-specific variations in genes associated with lactation and immune responsiveness. Genes involved in metabolism are generally highly conserved, although five metabolic genes are deleted or extensively diverged from their human orthologs. The cattle genome sequence thus provides a resource for understanding mammalian evolution and accelerating livestock genetic improvement for milk and meat production.

Codex Angelicus 123 as a Liturgical Manuscript
- 2005
-
In: Classica et Medaevalia. - Copenhagen : Museum Tusculanum Press. - 0106-5815. ; 56, s. 303-325
-
Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- Reading a liturgical manuscript demands an interdisciplinary approach in order to read the conventions and pecularities in such sources. Using the Bologna gradual and troper-sequentiary, codex Angelicus 123, dated ca. 1039, as an example, this paper presents three case studies to illustrate how different interartistic representations work together in the medieval folio, e.g. word and image, text and music, and liturgical conventions in the text editing.
