DNA analysis reveals gene copy number variation drives rapid adaptation in invasive plants
A breakthrough method for analyzing the DNA of centuries-old plant samples has given scientists an edge in combating the spread of invasive plants. Researchers from Monash University and the ...
Genetic inheritance may sound straightforward: One gene causes one trait or a specific illness. When doctors use genetics, it’s usually to try to identify a disease-causing gene to help guide ...
A landmark study uncovers how a specific lung gene, FOXP4, raises the risk of persistent symptoms after COVID-19, providing fresh insight into why some people are more susceptible to long COVID than ...
Genetic research uncovers a continuum between diabetes forms, offering insights for precision medicine. Study: Rare variant analyses in 51,256 type 2 diabetes cases and 370,487 controls reveal the ...
Less than 30% of people with certain genetic variants go blind, despite the faulty genes previously being thought to cause ...
The largest study so far into the genetics of chronic fatigue syndrome, or myalgic encephalomyelitis, has implicated 259 genes – six times more than those identified just four months ago ...
