GENETICS Series & Collections
As part of our mission to serve our communities, GENETICS and G3: Genes|Genomes|Genetics publish thematic Series spanning a broad range of topics. Updated as new articles are published, we invite additional articles on these topics and hope that they stimulate discussion and discovery. All Series remain open - submit your work to one of them today!
Additionally, GENETICS publishes FlyBook, WormBook, and YeastBook which serve as a comprehensive compendium of invited review articles presenting the current state of knowledge in fly, worm, and yeast research.
GSA Series
The GSA Journals GENETICS and G3: Genes|Genomes|Genetics are reviewing submissions of papers on the Genetics of Bacteria.
Over the past decade, biobanks—defined as large collections of biological, medical, and genetic data on the same individuals—have revolutionized human genomics research by deepening our understanding of the complex relationships between genomes and phenomes at different organizational levels...
Genes and variants of interest in rare diseases often benefit from modeling in cellular assays or genetic models to aid in understanding molecular and cellular mechanisms of disfunction. Model organisms are useful for the discovery of new genetic diseases and key to understanding variant effects...
Neurogenetics lies at the intersection of Neuroscience and Genetics, where genetic approaches are applied to the study of nervous system development, function, and plasticity. These two fields have rapidly advanced over the past few decades, especially as leaps in novel technologies...
The fungal kingdom is remarkable in its breadth and depth of impact on global health, agriculture, biodiversity, ecology, manufacturing, and biomedical research. With at least 6 million species, these eukaryotes exhibit astounding diversity at the level of genomes, morphologies...
The GSA Journals began the MPP series in 2014 to collect data and methods and to stimulate discussion in the community. With this collection, we hope to foster a cross-disciplinary flow of information and to provide a rich resource of experimental and methodological data...
The landmark GENETICS paper by Meuwissen et al., in 2001 launched an entire field. In recognition of this, we developed a virtual series on Genomic Prediction in the April 2012 issues of GENETICS and G3: Genes|Genomes|Genetics, with the goal of stimulating discussion in the community...
Plant science has generated many discoveries and advances in genetics and genomics research. These contributions reflect the ingenuity and rigor of the plant science community, as well as the rich diversity of plants and their biology. Plants are vital in our daily lives—as a source of food, fiber, and fuel...
GENETICS Collections
In 2016 GENETICS celebrated 100 years of communicating science. During 2016 we published a series of Commentaries by experts examining where the science of heredity is heading in the second century of GENETICS, on topics ranging from human genetics to population genetics, from...
FlyBook, WormBook, YeastBook
In October 2015, GENETICS launched FlyBook, a comprehensive compendium of review articles presenting the current state of knowledge in Drosophila research. Each month, GENETICS will publish one or two FlyBook articles spanning the breadth of biology, genetics, genomics, and evolution...
In March 2016, GENETICS launched WormBook in GENETICS, a comprehensive compendium of review articles presenting the current state of knowledge in C. elegans...
In the November 2011 issue of GENETICS, the Genetics Society of America launched its YeastBook series, a comprehensive compendium of reviews that presents the current state of knowledge of the molecular biology, cellular biology, and genetics of the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae...
