Altering a mosquito's gut genes to make them spread antimalarial genes to the next generation of their species shows promise as an approach to curb malaria. Altering a mosquito's gut genes to make ...

The complex migratory traits of northern California's Chinook salmon - which have led some to regard the early- versus late-migrating fish as different species - result from a single, small gene ...

I'd say if you think about it this almost has to be the case. Closely related species often behave in similar ways. Clearly if a large amount of difference in genetics were required in order to ...

A “simple” genetic test for newborn babies that will help prevent deafness caused by a common antibiotic is to be rolled out ...

Testing for genetic mutations in urine can detect bladder cancer years before the disease shows clinical symptoms, new research has shown. The study, by researchers from France, Iran and the United ...

Challenges in RNA-Seq analysis. (a) Commonly used normalization methods assume that only a small proportion of transcripts are differentially expressed between conditions (small, dashed inner circle ...

Every time a cell divides to produce two new daughter cells., the genome must be replicated and evenly divided between those new cells. During this process, DNA undergoes many changes in form.

Altering a mosquito's gut genes to make them spread antimalarial genes to the next generation of their species shows promise as an approach to curb malaria, suggests a preliminary study published ...

The test was piloted and implemented in Manchester and has now been successfully introduced by NHS Greater Glasgow and Clyde ...
