A new technique developed by Salk Institute Scientists for rapidly mapping regions of DNA targeted by regulatory proteins could give scientists insight into what makes some plants drought tolerant or disease resistant, among other traits. This graphic shows 57 short sequences of DNA where transcription factors bind to control genetic activity.  In their study, Salk Institute scientists identified 529 such patterns of DNA,...
