As climate change accelerates, plants face mounting pressure to adapt to shifting ecosystems and environmental conditions.

Amid a shakeup in U.S. science, researchers are expressing alarm over the integrity of key genetic databases overseen by the ...

Scientists have pinpointed nearly 300 "hotspots" in the human genome that may increase the risk of bipolar disorder. In the largest study of its kind to date, an international research team conducted ...

Synthetic biologists from Yale were able to re-write the genetic code of an organism - a novel genomically recoded organism (GRO) with one stop codon - using a cellular platform that they developed ...

Understanding how plants adapt to different environments is crucial for addressing climate change. A new study by the groups of Liam Dolan and Frédéric Berger at the Gregor Mendel Institute (GMI) of ...

Scientists have long believed they understood how life’s genetic code evolved, but new research upends that assumption. By ...

New research reveals that despite decades of overfishing, shortfin mako sharks in the Atlantic still have relatively high ...

Researchers use CRISPR to overcome seemingly insurmontable reproductive barriers — but that doesn't mean this could work for ...
