With the goal of a better understanding of biology through the lens of evolution however there are additional genomes that are worth sequencing. One such rationale for whole-genome sequencing is discussed here along with other important strategies for understanding the phenotypic divergence of species. Bioinformaticists and computational biologists working in the field of comparative genomics are largely dependent on datasets generated by others. Working with available data opens up desires for complementary datasets to fill knowledge gaps. In addition to writing grants for experimental laboratories and molecular biology supplies one can also write an opinion piece to convince others to do some of the dirty work for you this is what I am attempting to do here. Comparative genomics starts with sequencing. Many have suggested gaps in the tree of life where additional genome projects will augment current knowledge either to shorten long branches on the tree of sequenced genomes or to complement existing genome projects. For example there remain huge gaps in our knowledge of archaea. But with the faith that these gaps will ultimately be filled in in this article I focus on alternative strategies for directing genomic resources so as to answer fundamental questions in evolution. The tape of life A whole class of genomic experiments can be hypothesized through what can be called the tape of life question. .
