The study provides a comprehensive behavioral dataset of Drosophila melanogaster, categorized by genetic background, sex, and social context (isolated or in groups). Beyond enabling detailed analyses ...
Comprehensive fruit fly behavior dataset maps genetic diversity to decode animal behavioral patterns
Years of research in the field of genetics have offered interesting insights spanning the origins and development of heredity and traits, offering valuable information on its influence on every aspect ...
Because same-sex sexual behavior does not result in offspring, evolutionary biologists have long wondered how the genes associated with this behavior have persisted in the human genome, and whether ...
Although sedentary behavior may be an evolutionarily selected trait, it is still important to try to be physically active, says a new study conducted at the University of Jyväskylä, Finland.
In a paper published in Nature Communications, researchers at Vanderbilt University Medical Center's Department of Otolaryngology–Head and Neck Surgery leveraged two main studies—one focused on ...
New genomic research provides strong rationale against genetic determinism for behavior. It has long been known that there is a complex interplay between genetic factors and environmental influences ...
In his 2003 bestseller The Blank Slate: The Modern Denial of Human Nature, Steven Pinker asserts that "The three laws of behavioral genetics may be the most important discoveries in the history of ...
This post is the third in the series “Connecting Biology to Behavior: Inside the ADHD Brain.” Read the first post to learn about the role of dopamine in ADHD behaviors and the second post to learn ...
Understanding how genes influence complex behaviors remains one of biology's most fascinating challenges. Now, however, in a recent study, researchers have compiled a comprehensive dataset documenting ...
