A significant study has mapped the genetic complexity of Populus cathayana, an ecologically and economically valuable poplar species. By creating a detailed genome assembly and analyzing genetic ...

A detailed genomic investigation of a Denver Zoo outbreak shows how SARS-CoV-2 can rapidly diversify and adapt after crossing species, offering a rare real-world view of viral evolution beyond humans.

Millions thrive at high altitudes due to remarkable genetic adaptations. Tibetans, for instance, possess a gene variant allowing efficient oxygen use without dangerously thick blood. Andeans and ...
