Most lethal mutations in wild fruit flies are driven by newly transferred jumping genes, not small DNA errors, according to a ...

Research is shaking up how we think about evolution, suggesting there's a level of predictability influenced by genes and genetic history.

The Amazon molly reproduces without sex. A genomic copy-and-paste trick called gene conversion may explain how it avoids evolutionary meltdown.

MPN-BP transformation is driven by sequential mutations disrupting genomic stability, with TP53 mutations being strong predictors of progression. TP53 mutations confer a selective growth advantage, ...

Much of the phenotypic variation that is observed within and between species is the result of differences in gene regulation: specifically when, where and how much the genes are expressed. Given the ...

Groundbreaking research shows that as men age, harmful genetic mutations in sperm become more common—not just from random chance, but because some are naturally favored. Advanced sequencing revealed ...

The domestication of horses is a much more recent even compared to other domesticated species; horses were domesticated about 4,500 years ago, which was about 5,000 years after the domestication of ...
