This issue of Genome Research focuses on informatics. As the amount of data coming out of genetic research and the complexity of the questions asked increases, the need for faster computer programs with increasingly complex analysis capabilities grows. Informatics handling is required to enable faster and higher quality sequencing, to assess sequencing systems as a whole, and to promote better ability to analyze long sequences for identification of genes—by recognizing potential open reading frames, splice sites, and promoters—and for …
