Despite the traditional view that species do not exchange genes by hybridisation, recent studies show that gene flow between closely related species is more common than previously thought. A team of ...

This unit, part of the Nature of Teaching series, explores the effects of barriers and human assistance on wildlife gene flow. Students will learn about the effects of human-induced factors on ...

What are cell and gene therapies? Cell and gene therapies are used to treat, and sometimes cure, diseases by addressing the underlying genes or proteins. While there is overlap between the fields, ...

Researchers analyzed the genomes of 20 butterfly species and found evidence that many butterflies -- including distantly related species -- have a surprisingly high amount of gene flow between them.

A new study led by Nebraska's John Benson and Kyle Dougherty shows young mountain lions in California struggle to disperse ...

The advent of CRISPR has radically changed the face and pace of biological research and has unlocked unprecedented potential in the study of functional genomics, target identification, and gene ...

What are cell and gene therapies? Cell and gene therapies are utilized to treat diseases and, in some cases, cure diseases by targeting the underlying proteins or genes. Overlaps between these ...
