Genetic polymorphisms associated with cancer progression lead to variations in gene expression and may serve as prognostic markers for lung cancer, researchers show. They found that in patients ...

A new study discusses the role of a mucin gene enhancer on the clinical phenotype of the COVID-19.

A central aspect of research in human genetics concerns the association of variations in DNA sequences with human evolutionary history or heritable phenotypes. SNPs represent the most common type ...

John C. Avise, Mitochondrial DNA Polymorphism and a Connection Between Genetics and Demography of Relevance to Conservation, Conservation Biology, Vol. 9, No. 3 (Jun., 1995), pp. 686-690 ...

Understanding the maintenance of variation that occurs in discrete morphs is a classic question in evolutionary genetics (eg Fisher, 1931; Clarke, 1962). Several basic questions must be answered ...

In a population evolving by gradual change, the amount of genetic variation is important because the rate of evolution is absolutely limited by the degree of genetic variability. Various forces of ...

The genetics behind the alternating sexes of walnut trees has been revealed by biologists at the University of California, Davis. The research, published Jan. 3 in Science, reveals a mechanism that ...

Biologists have revealed genetics behind the alternating sexes of walnut trees. The research reveals a mechanism that has been stable in walnuts and their ancestors going back 40 million years ...
