Scientific breakthrough allows Tom to set sights on Paralympic Games [Published This is Devon - Jun 17 2013]

Dr Michael Dunn, Head of Genetic and Molecular Sciences at the Wellcome Trust, adds: "This is a great example of genome sequencing coming of age. Where previously sequencing a patient's entire genome was prohibitively expensive, it is now far more cost effective. As we've seen here, it is no longer just about identifying genes implicated in common diseases, but is about informing diagnoses and prognoses of rare diseases – and, in Tom's case, helping inform his sporting performance."

...due to the diversity of plants foraged by the ants and changes in substrate composition throughout the degradation process," the team reported. "Therefore, the ability of L gongylophorus to quickly alter the production and secretion of lignocellulases in response to nutrient availabilities is likely critical for efficient biomass processing."
