The striking black-and-white patterns of the wheatear are shaped by a mosaic of genetic variations, influencing the bird's ...
Many butterflies develop wing patterns that mimic other species to protect themselves from predators. While growing complex ...
In a first-of-its-kind experiment tracing evolution across 25 generations, scientists have discovered that marine copepods—the tiny crustaceans at the heart of the ocean food web—rely on a largely ...
G. Ledyard Stebbins (1906-2000)- an appreciation / Peter H. Raven -- Solution to Darwin's dilemma: discovery of the missing Precambrian record of life / J. William Schopf -- The chimeric eukaryote: ...
Researchers have significantly expanded the catalogue of known human genetic variation. The resulting datasets, shared in two back-to-back publications in the journal Nature, constitute what may be ...
New research into the genetics of Anopheles funestus (An. funestus), one of the most neglected but prolific malaria-transmitting mosquitoes in Africa, has revealed how this species is evolving in ...
Scientists have uncovered new evidence suggesting that autism may have it roots in how the human brain has evolved. "Our results suggest that some of the same genetic changes that make the human brain ...
