Science published three papers alongside the sequence, one of which compares specific sections of the genome of 27 globally representative maize varieties to show common patterns of genetic variation.

《科学》杂志在发表这个序列的同时还发表了三篇论文，其中一篇比较了27个全球代表性玉米品种基因组的特定区域，从而展示遗传变异的共同模式。

Most variation in the human genome is neutral, meaning that it arose not by natural selection but by processes like harmless mutations and the random shuffling of the genome between generations.

人类的大多数变异基因都是中性的，这意味着变异之所以被激发不是出于自然选择，而是由于产生了良性变异或染色体在复制时候发生了混乱。

There is a wide variation in the amount of these CNV deletions which people have in their genome, with some people having several million.

人类基因组拷贝数变异缺失在数量上也有很大的不同，有些人的缺失数甚至能达到几百万。
