100Dates (a date palm whole genome sequencing project )

100Dates (a date palm whole genome sequencing project ) 100 Dates! is a whole genome sequencing project of the NYU Abu Dhabi Center for Genomics and Systems

This is a project of the NYU Abu Dhabi Center for Genomics and Systems Biology to study the genomic diversity of the date palm from around the world. The study will provide information on the origin and spread of date palms, and lead to better variety identification, genetic mapping of traits and improved cultivation practices.

Introducing the NYU Abu Dhabi Center for Genomics and Systems Biology - the home of 100 Dates!

Article"Among the most fundamental questions in the life sciences are those of how molecular systems are built from the interaction of molecular genetic elements," said NYU New York Silver Professor of Biology Claude Desplan. "How such networks adapt to new conditions, when and how they break down —...

A great article on the many date varieties in Saudi Arabia, and the search for the best dates.

In Saudi Arabia’s Eastern Province, the expression speaks to the futility of bringing more dates to the al-Hasa Oasis—the world’s largest date-growing region, with three million trees. Here, khalasahs, called khlas, are one of dozens of commercial varieties harvested by the thousands of tons. So whe...
