A groundbreaking genomic study has shed new light on the complex evolutionary history of mites and ticks, revealing how parasitism emerged and diversified over more than 100 million years.

Researchers are trying to understand why some wild species do better than others over time, as the environment changes.

Researchers study house sparrow genetics to understand survival, evolution, and how species respond to environmental change.

“Expression tells us what cells do, but regulatory DNA tells us where they come from, how they develop, and which germ layer ...

A major evolutionary theory says most genetic changes don’t really matter, but new evidence suggests that’s not true. Researchers found that helpful mutations happen surprisingly often. The twist is ...

The research analysed not just gene composition but also the physical order of genes on chromosomes, tracking their movements ...

Researchers have successfully reconstructed the ancient genomes of Human betaherpesvirus 6A and 6B (HHV-6A/B) from human ...

In a study published in Developmental Cell, a team led by Prof. Robert K. Naumann from the Shenzhen Institutes of Advanced Technology of the Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS), and researchers from BGI ...

Human evolution’s biggest mystery, which emerged 15 years ago from a 60,000-year-old pinkie finger bone, finally started to ...

Researchers find Apennine brown bears evolved into a smaller, less aggressive animal after centuries of coexistence with humans.
