I have a need to assign dispersed individuals back to a clutch of eggs. I have many samples from each clutch of eggs. Rather than conducting a sibship analysis between the eggs and the dispersed adults, would it be possible to homogenize a batch of eggs and sequence them as one sample that approximates the parental genomes and then conduct a parentage analysis to assign individuals back to their clutch?

Sounds like a reasonable approach to me. The clutch presumably has paternal and maternal alleles, while a single individual will have half of the alleles present in the clutch, but I think the relationship would be clear unless the different clutches are highly similar.Providing nextRAD genotyping and PacBio sequencing services. http://snpsaurus.com

The sequencing world is rapidly changing due to declining costs, enhanced accuracies, and the advent of newer, cutting-edge instruments. Equally important to these developments are improvements in sequencing analysis, a process that converts vast amounts of raw data into a comprehensible and meaningful form. This complex task requires expertise and the right analysis tools. In this article, we highlight the progress and innovation in sequencing analysis by reviewing several of the...-

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...-
