Plant breeders, aiming to develop resilient and high-quality crops, often cross plants from different species to transfer desirable traits. However, they frequently encounter a major obstacle: hybrid ...

Genes contain the essential building instructions for life, guiding cells on which amino acids to assemble in what sequence to produce specific proteins. The human genome codes for about 20,000 such ...

Genetics is the branch of science concerned with genes, heredity, and variation in living organisms. It seeks to understand the process of trait inheritance from parents to offspring, including ...

Plant biotechnology can be defined as the introduction of desirable traits into plants through genetic modification. Genomic and pangenomic data are yielding insights into the evolution of plant ...

Oct. 9, 2024 — Researchers have created a CRISPR-based rapid molecular diagnostic for two forms of leukemia that are driven by mutations that involve gene fusions. The technology accurately ...

Nov. 11, 2024 — Researchers have discovered a new way in which RAS genes, which are commonly mutated in cancer, may drive tumor growth beyond their well-known role in signaling at the cell ...
