When roundworms stop reproducing, they can still move and function normally but lose their ability to detect certain food ...

Ultrastructure expansion microscopy of murine male germ cells reveals the fine molecular structures of centrioles (shown in the enlarged image). DNA is stained in blue, and the chromosome axis in red.

Ancient DNA from Denisovans left humans a powerful genetic advantage — a gene that helped early Americans survive new ...

A study suggests psychiatric disorders can share the same genetic signatures and that they may stem from shared biological mechanisms.

Researchers have discovered genes linked to obesity in both Labradors and humans. They say the effects can be over-ridden with a strict diet and exercise regime. Researchers studying British Labrador ...

In the late 2010s eight macaque monkeys were born at a laboratory in Shanghai. At first they seemed much like the other infants in the colony, but differences soon became obvious. They were much more ...

A gene on the X chromosome revs up inflammation in the female brain, which may explain why rates of multiple sclerosis are higher in women than in men, scientists suggest. When you purchase through ...

Potatoes are one of the world's most important food crops, yet genetic improvements to increase tuber yield and quality have ...

Labrador retriever owners are likely familiar with how persistent their dogs can be in their quest for food, whether begging under the dinner table or stealing a snack left unattended. It’s no ...
