The Hawaii Papaya Genome Project published the complete genome of the transgenic "SunUp" papaya in Nature this week. The papaya marks the fifth plant genome to be completed and the first transgenic fruit crop. 


DNA Sequencing Complete in Record Time!
Darkfrog submitted, created time 7 months 2 weeks (www.nature.com)
Dr. Watson, I presume? Although criticisms remain -- largely that the small fragments into which the man's genome was snipped might not have been reassembled properly -- a full genome in only four months is plenty to crow about.
Watson's genome is not the first to be sequenced. We may recall that J. Craig Venter's was as well, but Venter's project cost US$100 million and Watson's only $1.5 million.
What strikes me about this article is that it's the first time I've seen any reference to an X-Prize for sequencing 


International genome project launched
jane2007 submitted, created time 10 months 1 week (www.nature.com)
A much-anticipated international project to sequence the entire genomes of 1,000 people was launched on Tuesday, but some question whether the three-year project is ambitious enough in its scope. 
Cats Genome Help Understanding Human Genome And Diseases
biosunny submitted, created time 1 year 4 weeks (www.efluxmedia.com)
An Abyssinian cat, called Cinnamon, will be the object of a 3 million pounds project in order to have its genome mapped. Next year, when the details of the cat’s genome will be revealed in full, Cinnamon will represent her species, Felis catus, as their genetic model. The cat genomes and humans are very similar. A cat genome is thought to contain 20,285 genes and the human genome is believed to hold between 20,000 and 25,000 genes.
