C. elegans measures one millimeter in length and lives in dirt. It was the first animal - complete with nervous and digestive systems and a system for reproducing sexually - to have its genome deciphered.
-
HGP researchers progressed their goal of obtaining a draft sequence spanning 90% of the human genome to 2000 and a year and a half before it was previously expected. Full-scale human genome sequences have began.

A paper appeared in the journal Nature in April 1953 proposing a double helix structure for deoxyribose nucleic acid DNA. The determination of the molecular structure of the gene was one of the most important achievements of all science.
-
The United States Congress adopted a resolution setting aside April 25 as National DNA Day. The date was chosen to mark the 50th anniversary of the publication by Francis Crick and James Watson of a seminal paper explaining the double helix DNA model and the recent official completion of the Human Genome Project.
