An international collaboration has published groundbreaking research, shedding light on the most significant increase in complexity in the history of life's evolution on Earth: the origin of the ...

Mutations fuel evolution while also causing diseases like cancer. Epigenome-targeted DNA repair can help organisms protect important genomic regions from mutation. However, the adaptive value, ...

New research analyzing their evolution finds the same mutation across fish species that have evolved on separate timelines — alongside human-made pollutants contaminating the deep sea.

Scientists uncovered how whole-genome duplication emerges and remains stable over thousands of generations of evolution in the lab. Sometimes, the most significant scientific discoveries happen by ...

We found that distinct mitochondrially-defined clones exhibit more similar chromatin accessibility at relapse relative to diagnosis, demonstrating convergent epigenetic evolution in relapsed AML.

"It can inform our understanding of the evolution of prosocial behaviour across evolutionarily distant species, providing important insights into convergent evolution." ...

Linked MIRU-24 and whole-genome sequencing data for isolates in these three datasets enabled a comparison of MIRU-24 evolution ... tree was 604 substitutions. The mean nearest taxon distance (MNTD) ...

The new-born discipline of music evolution will benefit—and has already benefitted—by unifying the following approaches into one research framework: (1) empirical investigations, as opposed to ...
