Summary Introduction
Introduction:
Comparative genomics is a biological field in which the genomic features of different types of organisms are compared to each other. In the genomic features DNA sequence, genes, gene order, regulatory sequences, and other genomic structural landmarks may include for the study of the comparative genomic profile of the different organism. Comparative genomic basically performed with the help of computational approaches. This comparative study of whole genome sequences provides highly detailed information of how organisms are related to each other at the genetic level.
