Norwegian Consortium Assembles, Annotates Cod Genome from 454 Data

A Norwegian consortium of researchers, in collaboration with Roche's 454 Life Sciences, has completed a high-quality annotated draft genome of the Atlantic cod, using a sequencing strategy that relied exclusively on shotgun and paired-end sequence data generated on 454's GS FLX Titanium platform.
