Forward- and reverse-genetic screens in model organisms have revealed that phenotypic traits are typically influenced by the activities of hundreds or thousands of genes and that, conversely ...

These organisms are also successful models because of their versatility. “The best model species are ones that are not just ... including sexual divergence, genetic variation, social and environmental ...

Studies in model organisms have begun to map out important ... These studies have the great advantage that one can use genetic approaches to search directly for mutations that change life span.

This course explores fundamental concepts in classical and molecular genetics. We will examine how studies in genetic model organisms (including budding yeast, Drosophila, and C. elegans) have yielded ...

How do organisms adapt to climate change? A new study reveals the complex interplay between genetic diversity and temperature ...

Standard genetic sequencing approaches can tell you ... to create a complete DNA image of a zebrafish embryo, a common model organism for studying development and neurobiology.

A breakthrough study, led by scientists at Waipapa Taumata Rau, University of Auckland, has uncovered how daylight can boost ...
