(University of Cambridge) Plant scientists at the Sainsbury Laboratory Cambridge University have built a gene expression atlas that maps the 'noisy genes' of genetically identical plants. This is helping to explain why 'twin' plants, with identical genes, grown in identical environments continue to display unique characteristics all of their own.
