The New Science of Nature and Nurture.” Since Francis Galton coined the phrase “nature versus nurture” 150 years ago, the ...

may provide clues to the location of the genes for common disease and complex traits. There are at least four arguments in favor of a role for common variation in complex traits. First ...

That's because scientists at Colossal Biosciences say they've genetically engineered tiny rodents to possess the iconic shaggy locks of the woolly mammoth, in a stepping stone towards reviving the ...

Scientists have identified genes that control tomato and eggplant size, paving the way for bigger, tastier, and more ...

The gene editing resulted in mice with the predicted traits from the team’s computational analysis and design for specific phenotypic changes. Colossal woolly mice all have an edit that causes ...

An animal geneticist told Kansas cattle producers recently that a gene editing technique is a safe option for shortening the ...

A research team led by Andrea Eveland, PhD, associate member at the Donald Danforth Plant Science Center, has uncovered key genetic regulatory factors that control pleiotropy—a phenomenon where a ...

Researchers are using gene editing techniques to introduce beneficial traits like polled and disease resistance, as well as ...

The mouse is validation that our de-extinction pipeline is successful," Colossal Biosciences' Dr. Beth Shapiro tells Interesting Engineering.
