Researchers extracted DNA from a Neanderthal bone fragment found in Russia's Denisova Cave, and the genome is shedding light on how small and isolated their groups were.

Our social conceptions of race and ethnicity do not match the underlying biological and genetic variation within our species, and we should never confuse the things that were created for the purposes ...

Camelina sativa, a promising biofuel crop, has recently been the subject of an in-depth study exploring its genetic diversity, subgenome structure, and expression dominance. Despite its low genetic ...
