University of Michigan researchers have developed a statistical method that can be used for such wide-ranging applications as ...

Researchers have created a way to see your family tree as a movie rather than a still portrait by tracing where your ancestors moved across the globe over time. The statistical method can also be used ...

These findings demonstrate that the capsular serotype and genetic background significantly impact pneumococcal growth kinetics. The resultant growth features likely depend on the interaction between ...

Researchers at the Francis Crick Institute have demonstrated that a genetic method called "pooled prime editing" can screen ...

If breeding is limited to a smaller number of surviving individuals, long-term diversity could still be at risk despite the temporary increase in genetic variation. At the genetic basis, ASF may have ...

“In 2009, we were able to define the entire sequence of the cattle genome, which gave us a look at the genetic variation that exists between cattle breeds,” Van Eenennaam says. “In the case of cattle, ...
