Amanda L. Pendleton's work centers on genome sequencing and comparative genomics across a wide range of organisms, including dogs, macaques, algae, sea slugs, and plants. A recurring focus is identifying structural genetic features—such as endogenous retroviruses (ancient virus-derived DNA embedded in host genomes), copy number variation, and mobile genetic elements—and using reference genome assemblies to understand evolutionary history and biological traits. This research combines bioinformatics and molecular biology methods to build genomic resources and study genome evolution rather than direct disease treatment.
Publication output peaked around 2019-2020 and has since slowed, with only a few outputs per year in recent years.
