The zebrafish (Danio rerio) is an essential model organism in biomedical research, favored due to its genetic similarity to humans and cost-effective maintenance. With approximately 75% of its genome ...

Polyploidy, or whole-genome duplication (WGD), is a major mechanism of genome evolution across the tree of life and is particularly prevalent in plants, where it facilitates the evolution of new ...

Researchers discovered a previously unknown function of RNA, potentially opening the door to new ways to treat cancer and neurodegenerative diseases.

The UK has officially launched the Synthetic Human Genome Project, a groundbreaking initiative, aiming to construct human DNA from scratch.

India's population is genetically one of the most diverse in the world, yet it remains underrepresented in global datasets.

Genome evolution is the process by which a genome changes in structure over time, through mutation, horizontal gene transfer, and sexual reproduction. The study of genome evolution involves ...

The Genographic Project began in 2005 and is a research project carried out by the National Geographic Society’s scientific team to reveal patterns of human migration. The project is carried out ...
