Non-human Chromosome Analysis

Dear Colleagues,

This Topical Collection of Cells is devoted to the International Colloquium on Animal Cytogenetics and Genomics (ICACG)

The study of non-human chromosomes has a range of broad and interesting applications. It is a broad and fascinating area, touching on fields such as disease, genome reconstruction, agriculture, sex determination, conservation, extinction, evolution, and epigenetics, amongst others. As a recompense for the unfortunate postponement of the International Colloquium on Animal Cytogenetics and Genomics (ICACG), the plenary speakers of the conference would like to present a series of exciting studies, either in the form of original research or review articles, providing novel insight.
When the conference reconvenes in 2021, the Topical Collection will be also available to participants to celebrate the end of our Covid lockdown.

Prof. Darren Griffin
Collection Editor
