Researchers mapped the basic genetic code for rice several years ago.But mapping the genome is only the first step.Researchers still need to find the genes for specific traits they are looking for.In a new study,researchers compared 20 different varieties of rice using a technique that identifies tiny genetic differences between individual plants.

(第二段)这里的 to sort of get是怎么回事?动词不定式+of(介词)+动词(原型)?

你不能单看这个,因为前面的是一个以what为主语的倒装,意思是,你不能做的是,,to sort of 加后面的内容

这是口语,sort of就是kind of,字面上是“有点”的意思。但是实际上经常就是口头的习惯,并不表示任何意义。任何语言里都有这种没意义的口头语,比如中文里“那个”“就是”“恩”之类的词
What it enables you to do is to (sort of) get a read on how...
建议多上网看看国外的英语网站,少去琢磨一些语法。这样才能活学活用现学现卖

sort of 是美语口语里常用的词,稍微的,稍稍的,那样的,之类表示程度的意思.所以这个用法其实就是 to get ,sort of 是修饰动词 get 的.

这里的 sort of 可以省略掉,这样这句话就简单为:
What it enables you to do is to (sort of) get a read on how one.....
sort of....其实是个语气吧,意思大概为“差不多”“多多少少””基本上可以这样说“
再如:My main job is sort of preparing documents for my boss. 我的主要工作呢,差不多(基本上可以说)是帮我老板准备文件吧。
