Bonobo Genome Completed
Max Planck scientists have completed the genome of the bonobo -- the final great ape to be sequenced
This is
Ulindi, the female bonobo
from which the genome was
sequenced, in the Leipzig zoo.

Baby's Genome Deciphered Prenatally from Parents' Lab Tests
Possibility of a single, non-invasive genetic screen during pregnancy for thousands of disorders is at hand
Blood
samples from a pregnant woman
and the baby's father can be used to
sequence the whole foetal genome.
