switchgrass genes identified biofuels ahead
2021/3/5
Biologists believe they are one step closer to a long-held goal of making a cheap, widely available plant source for energy and fuel. One of the next big weapons in the battle against climate change m...

New prediction algorithm identifies previously undetected cancer driver genes
2020/12/11
A new study, led by U.S. National Science Foundation-funded researchers at the University of California, Irvine, has deepened the understanding of epigenetic mechanisms in tumorigenesis and ...
Where'd you get those genes? Individual growth can vary wildly when populations interbreed(图)
genes Individual growth vary wildly populations interbreed
2020/3/20
Scientists at Scripps Institution of Oceanography at the University of California San Diego have discovered why some hybrids between populations of the same species don't develop as well as others. Th...

New way disease-resistant genes chocolate-producing trees
2019/12/13
Chocolate-producing cacao trees that are resistant to a major pathogen were identified by an international team of plant geneticists. The NSF-funded finding points the way for plant breeders to develo...
When many people think of watermelons, they think of cultivated watermelons with the sweet, juicy red fruit enjoyed around the world -- Citrullus lanatus. Indeed, watermelon is one of the world’s most...
Red seaweeds, including those in sushi, thrive despite ancestor's loss of genes(图)
Red seaweeds ancestor loss of genes
2019/11/5
You'd think that losing 25 percent of your genes would be a big problem for survival. But not for red algae, including the seaweed used to wrap sushi.Red algae include phytoplankton and seaweeds, also...
Many of an organism's traits are influenced by cues from the environment. These features are known as phenotypically plastic traits, and are important in allowing the organism to cope with unpredictab...
Study:Viruses Share Genes With Organisms Across The Tree Of Life(图)
Viruses Share Genes Organisms Across Tree Of Life
2017/12/19
A new study finds that viruses share some genes exclusively with cells that are not their hosts. The study, reported in the journal Frontiers in Microbiology, adds to the evidence that viruses swap ge...

Penn-led Study Identifies Genes Responsible Diversity of Human Skin Colors
2017/10/25
Human populations feature a broad palette of skin tones. But until now, few genes have been shown to contribute to normal variation in skin color, and these had primarily been discovered through studi...
The “jumping genes” of maize have finally been mapped by an international team led by researchers at the University of California, Davis, and the Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory. The discovery could ult...

Penn Biologists Plants Turn Off Genes They Don’t Need
2017/9/5
A plant has one genome, a specific sequence of millions of basepairs of nucleotides. Yet how this genome is expressed can vary from cell to cell, and it can change as a plant goes through various life...
