Through remarkable advancements in genetic testing and data-driven strategies, McCarty Family Farms are setting new standards ...

The world’s largest network of environmental groups approved the exploration of genetic engineering tools to aid in the ...

Biologist Charles Darwin began crafting his theory of evolution on a trip to the Galapagos Islands, where he discovered animals had developed unique traits that varied from island to island. Nearly ...

Genetic engineering is a key technology for boosting agricultural yields. However, it still has a bad reputation. Sandro Marcos denies choosing Bojie Dy, says parties met for 'plenty of weeks' ...

Transgenic technology has become an essential tool for the development of animal biotechnologies, and animal cloning through somatic cell nuclear transfer (SCNT) enabled the generation of genetically ...

Some people build fences or plant flowers in their backyards. Others build contraptions that raise more questions than answers. Whether it’s a trash can full of sweet tea, a DIY pool wrapped in ...

In a giant feat of genetic engineering, scientists have created bacteria that make proteins in a radically different way than all natural species do. By Carl Zimmer At the heart of all life is a code.

Almost all organisms follow a basic rule to make proteins. Information in DNA is encoded by codons made of three bases, or letters, and most life uses 64 codons to code for 20 naturally occurring ...

Rare genetic traits are features that are uncommon within the general population. They can lead to different observable features or to rare physical abilities. Rare genetic traits are typically ...
