Article Synopsis
- Scientists want to find out if there is life on other planets, and they look for special molecules called organic molecules that are found in all living things on Earth.
- NASA's Perseverance rover and the future ExoMars rover are using special tools to detect these molecules on Mars, but they aren't as powerful as the machines we have here on Earth.
- A meteorite that fell to Earth called Lafayette was studied, and scientists discovered it has many organic molecules, including a type of toxin, which could mean it came from a place with plants and even a possible student collector from Purdue University.
The objective of the present study was to quantify the accuracy of imputing medium-density single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) genotypes from lower-density panels (384 to 12,000 SNPs) derived using alternative selection methods to select the most informative SNPs. Four different selection methods were used to select SNPs based on genomic characteristics (i.e.
