Journal Title：Genesis

As of January 2000, Developmental Genetics was renamed and relaunched as genesis: The Journal of Genetics and Development, with a new scope and Editorial Board. The journal focuses on work that addresses the genetics of development and the fundamental mechanisms of embryological processes in animals and plants. With increased awareness of the interplay between genetics and evolutionary change, particularly during developmental processes, we encourage submission of manuscripts from all ecological niches. The expanded numbers of genomes for which sequencing is being completed will facilitate genetic and genomic examination of developmental issues, even if the model system does not fit the “classical genetic” mold. Therefore, we encourage submission of manuscripts from all species. Other areas of particular interest include: 1) the roles of epigenetics, microRNAs and environment on developmental processes; 2) genome-wide studies; 3) novel imaging techniques for the study of gene expression and cellular function; 4) comparative genetics and genomics and 5) animal models of human genetic and developmental disorders.

genesis presents reviews, full research articles, short research letters, and state-of-the-art technology reports that promote an understanding of the function of genes and the roles they play in complex developmental processes.

自 2000 年 1 月起，Developmental Genetics 更名为 Genesis：The Journal of Genetics and Development，并具有新的范围和编委。该杂志专注于解决动物和植物发育遗传学和胚胎过程基本机制的工作。随着对遗传学和进化变化之间相互作用的认识的提高，特别是在发育过程中，我们鼓励提交来自所有生态位的手稿。正在完成测序的基因组数量的增加将促进对发育问题的遗传和基因组检查，即使模型系统不符合“经典遗传”模式。因此，我们鼓励提交所有物种的手稿。其他特别感兴趣的领域包括：1）表观遗传学、微小RNA和环境在发育过程中的作用； 2) 全基因组研究； 3) 用于研究基因表达和细胞功能的新型成像技术； 4) 比较遗传学和基因组学，以及 5) 人类遗传和发育障碍的动物模型。

genesis 提供评论、完整的研究文章、简短的研究信函和最先进的技术报告，以促进对基因功能及其在复杂发育过程中所起作用的理解。
