Summary

This page is intended solely for the Jarvis lab to download analysis datasets for the cross-species microarray expression experiments. The project is named "Cross-Species-2010" in the following files.

File Descriptions

Normalized data files

These files provide expression values after normalization by Scale Factor normalization.  The values are normal-space, not log2, but should be plotted on a log2 scale (or converted to log2 before plotting.)

Genomic organization and molecular phylogenies of the beta (beta) keratin multigene family in the chicken (Gallus gallus) and zebra finch (Taeniopygia guttata): implications for feather evolution., Greenwold, Matthew J., and Sawyer Roger H. , BMC evolutionary biology, 2010, Volume 10, p.148, (2010)

We have been pushing a number of efforts in parallel, and many of them are reaching milestones at the same time. Thus there are several updates that we hope will make the overall site more usable and useful to the avian research scientist.

Genomic resources for songbird research and their use in characterizing gene expression during brain development., Li, Xiaoching, Wang Xiu-Jie, Tannenhauser Jonathan, Podell Sheila, Mukherjee Piali, Hertel Moritz, Biane Jeremy, Masuda Shoko, Nottebohm Fernando, and Gaasterland Terry , Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 2007 Apr 17, Volume 104, Issue 16, p.6834-9, (2007)

Finishing the euchromatic sequence of the human genome., , Nature, 2004 Oct 21, Volume 431, Issue 7011, p.931-45, (2004)

Origin of avian genome size and structure in non-avian dinosaurs., Organ, Chris L., Shedlock Andrew M., Meade Andrew, Pagel Mark, and Edwards Scott V. , Nature, 2007 Mar 8, Volume 446, Issue 7132, p.180-4, (2007)

A Zebra Finch "new developments" view has been created. This view will be used to show new features that are in testing and not completely ready for "production use."

To use this new track, select the pulldown box labeled "Data Source".

This topic describes how to use OpenID, particularly for signing into the aviangenomes.org web site.

What is openID?

OpenID is a web authentication scheme meant to make it easier for the user (you) to sign in to multiple web sites without having to keep track of 100 usernames and passwords. It also serves to verify your consistent identity on the web. It actually doesn't verify who you are, but it does verify that a certain account owner on one web site is the same account owner on another web site (since both web sites will have the same openID.)
