Plants are fast-tracking their own evolution by "plugging in" genetic code stolen from their neighbors, according to new research that reveals the secret to their own successful genetic engineering.

There is a good chance that many of you watching right now have a dog somewhere nearby. But what do you actually know about where dogs come from? You're probably aware they evolved from wolves, but ...

From epic poetry to game shows, from Stone Age axes to spaceflight, humans have the most complex cultures of any species on Earth. Since the time of Darwin, scientists have suspected that this culture ...

Charles Darwin's theory of evolution generated scientific debate and discussion not only in Darwin's own time, but for decades afterward. In the latter part of the nineteenth century and the until the ...

About sixty percent of the genomes of human beings and bananas are similar. So does that mean we are bananas? Well, no - only in a figurative sense. The regulation of gene expression is essential to ...

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, ...

The present theory offers a unified solution to three closely related evolutionary problems. (1) Why does an evolving population explore only a small fraction of the accessible pathways in genotype ...
