I'm a new research from Brazil who works with T. cacao, if someone likes chocolate so we have something in common. I'm writing a project to develop RAD-Seq markers and I'd like some helps on the budget, can someone help me??

What do you want to know?
Do you know how many cut sites are in the genome? The number of RAD tags will be twice that. Are you planning single-end or paired-end sequencing? Do you want to capture heterozygosity at a high rate (higher read depth needed)?
For a single-end experiment, you might do a rough calculation like:
10 samples * 100,000 tags * 20X coverage * 30% "waste" = 26M reads.
Ordering adapters will add to the cost. Library consumables will be up to $20 per sample, depending on the project. Time... that is usually the driving cost factor, especially for trying it the first time. On both the library prep and analysis side of things.Providing nextRAD genotyping and PacBio sequencing services. http://snpsaurus.com

The field of epigenetics has traditionally concentrated more on DNA and how changes like methylation and phosphorylation of histones impact gene expression and regulation. However, our increased understanding of RNA modifications and their importance in cellular processes has led to a rise in epitranscriptomics research. “Epitranscriptomics brings together the concepts of epigenetics and gene expression,” explained Adrien Leger, PhD, Principal Research Scientist...04-22-2024, 07:01 AM -
Proteins are often described as the workhorses of the cell, and identifying their sequences is key to understanding their role in biological processes and disease. Currently, the most common technique used to determine protein sequences is mass spectrometry. While still a valuable tool, mass spectrometry faces several limitations and requires a highly experienced scientist familiar with the equipment to operate it. Additionally, other proteomic methods, like affinity assays, are constrained...04-04-2024, 04:25 PM
