Orto Botanico di Parma The Orto Botanico di Parma, also known as the Orto Botanico dell'Università di Parma, is a botanical garden maintained by the
1000 Plant Genomes Project based on the expression level (how many mRNA molecules it produces). This means that highly expressed genes get better coverage because there is more sequence to work from. The result, then, is that some important genes may not be reliably detected by the project if they are expressed at a low level yet still have important biochemical functions. Many plant species (especially agriculturally manipulated ones) are known to have undergone large genome-wide changes through duplication of the whole genome. The rice and the wheat genomes, for example, can have 4-6 copies of whole genomes (wheat) whereas animals typically only have
