What are the major SNP scoring and sequencing efforts currently being
conducted now that the Human Genome Project and HAPMAP have been
completed?

Thank you for your answer!
But, aren't these mostly studies that are studying the proteins
encoded by microbial and plant genomes as opposed to the genome itself
(which was the goal of HAPMAP and the Human Genome project)? Is that
correct?

If so, I was thinking more of projects like those funded by the
National Human Genome Research Institute. For example,

The Cancer Genome Atlas
http://www.genome.gov/17516564 
or
The Knockout Mouse Project
http://www.genome.gov/17515708 

Are there any more major projects like these being conducted?

Hi! Just to clarify my answer.

Please look at the page where I got the list.
 
http://genomicsgtl.energy.gov/research/currentprojects.shtml

It is classified as the primary research projects. In this list I only
included those that are not yet completed.

I hope this clarifies my answer.

Thanks again.
