The new DNA sequences can further help researchers understand how humans evolved over time. In the second study, geneticists examined the Y chromosomes from 43 genetically diverse men.

Each spot on a microarray contains a specific gene sequence. When the array is scanned, green or red spots indicate expression of the gene in only one sample, and yellow spots indicate expression ...

Chimpanzees produce diverse vocal sequences with ordered and recombinatorial properties. Communications Biology, 2022; 5 (1) DOI: 10.1038/s42003-022-03350-8 ...

So systems biologists like me often sequence all the DNA present in a sample – for example, a fecal sample from a patient – separate out the viral DNA sequences, and then annotate the sections ...

Though the Fibonacci sequence shows up everywhere in nature, these young mathematicians were surprised to find it in the answer to a variation of the pick-up sticks problem⁠—a nearly two-century-old f ...
