Scientists report adaptive divergence in cryptic color pattern is underlain by two distinct, complex chromosomal rearrangements, where millions of bases of DNA were flipped backwards and moved from ...

That's because sex — and gender roles, too —permeates all the way down to the most unreproductive of cell types. If you want to do science about animals including humans, sex as a biological variable ...

Chitons overcome evolutionary constraints through unprecedented genomic dynamism, with extensive chromosomal rearrangements and duplications despite about 300 million years of morphological stasis.

One day, the idea of the sex binary as a biological reality will appear as absurd as the idea that the earth is flat ...

The country’s largest-ever genomic study has identified unique genetic variants—a crucial step in closing a longstanding gap ...
