Genetic dominance in polymorphic loci may respond to selection; however, the evolution of dominance in complex traits remains a puzzle. We analyse dominance at a wing-patterning supergene controlling ...

A comprehensive survey of 42 urban parks in Northeast China reveals 12 earthworm species and strikingly divergent genetic ...

Populations live in rapidly changing environments—droughts come and go, food sources change, human activities reshape habitats. For scientists, this raises a fundamental puzzle: How do populations ...

Newswise — Camelina sativa, also known as false-flax, is gaining attention as a biofuel crop due to its potential for aviation fuel production and minimal agricultural input requirements. However, the ...

In Mendelian inheritance patterns, you receive one version of a gene, called an allele, from each parent. These alleles can be dominant or recessive. Non-Mendelian genetics don’t completely follow ...

Genetic predispositions and family environments both shape extreme political views, but they do so in entirely different ways depending on the specific type of attitude. A new study reveals that a ...

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 ...
