Welcome to the Buffalo Genome Resources page. This homepage provides information on buffalo and buffalo-related resources from NCBI and the research community. We encourage your suggestions. Photo courtesy of Tom Olson of Turkey Creek Buffalo Ranch, Arkansas, USA and Elisabete Amaral The river buffalo (Bubalus bubalis) is an agriculturally important animal, valued for its meat and milk. Just In... The Bubalus bubalis genome will be sequenced by a collaboration between the National Bureau of Animal Genetic Resources (NBAGR) in Karnal; the Central Institute for Research on Buffaloes (CIRB) in Hisar; and the Animal Science Division of the Indian Council of Agricultural Research (ICAR). The sequence is expected by August 2009; genome coverage is expected to be greater than 95%. Recent News...
