All other genomes should be aligned to his to evaluate their degree of bad-ass homology.Baymanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03436172198266062229noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14815894.post-34467637577066894932007-10-17T12:26:00.000-04:002007-10-17T12:26:00.000-04:00Ah, but is the BadAss gene dominant or recessive? ...Ah, but is the BadAss gene dominant or recessive?
