Genome assemblies from 65 individuals, representing a variety of the world’s populations, are advancing the scientific exploration of complex genetic structural variation. Structural variations are ...

Several genetic variations were recovered in individuals during remission compared to those in active disease. Recovered features included reduction of plasma and cell cycle signatures and increase of ...

Are human beings as unique as snowflakes? Not quite, but new research shows humans may have a lot more individuality than originally thought -- in fact, the genetic codes of people can vary by as much ...

Genes make us who we are—but are they shaped by chance, natural selection, or something else?

New research by the National Neuroscience Institute (NNI) of Singapore has identified for the first time how gene variations cause changes in the brain that are linked to essential tremor—a common ...

This research provides a comprehensive analysis of deleterious mutations in pear (Pyrus spp.) during domestication, shedding light on their impact on agronomic traits. By resequencing 232 pear ...
