The first-of-its-kind in-depth bacterial evolutionary map could pave the way for the development of precision treatments for ...

A genetic mutation in horses that would typically halt protein production has become a molecular asset. Researchers at Johns ...

Recent findings suggest that chimpanzees have evolved unique genetic mechanisms that help them resist malaria, offering ...

The myth of left-handed genius has existed for centuries, but does science support it? The truth about left-handed ...

Scientists created transgenic mice with woolly mammoth–like traits. But does it really bring us closer to bringing back woolly mammoths?

Resilience relies on the brain’s ability to regulate emotion, adapt, and recover. Myelin plasticity helps speed up and stabilize resilient brain responses. Genes like FKBP5 and BDNF affect how people ...

"We know that genetic diversity is what enables populations and species to adapt to future changes in their environment," ...

It can also inform their conservation. However, we know very little about genetic adaptation in chimpanzees, because obtaining high-quality DNA samples from wild individuals is extremely challenging.

It can also inform their conservation. However, we know very little about genetic adaptation in chimpanzees, because obtaining high-quality DNA samples from wild individuals is extremely challenging.

The influence of environmental variables from original collection locations on local adaptation through plant and trait performance and the identification of candidate alleles was highlighted. The ...
