It may have fewer than many of the other sciences, but biology does have two dozen or so “rules”—broad generalizations about the behavior or nature and evolution. Now, USC researchers want to add a ...
Biologists are closing in on a puzzle that seems to turn classic evolutionary logic inside out, yet may be so common that it ...
The conservation of genome regulatory elements over long periods of evolution is not limited to vertebrates, as previously ...
A new biological law has been proposed offering key insights into the processes of evolution and aging. Biological laws are recognized patterns that hold true for a group of living organisms. For ...
A single thermal performance curve applies across life, from bacteria to animals. Species differ in optimal temperatures, but not in the fundamental shape of their response to heat. Researchers at Tri ...
The conservation of genome regulatory elements over long periods of evolution is not limited to vertebrates, as previously ...
A reduced genome in an island species raises evolutionary questions.
A new study co-authored by researchers at Indiana University sheds light on how the forces that shape mountain ranges also influence the evolution of species. In the study, "Direct effects of mountain ...
The Gazette offers audio versions of articles using Instaread. Some words may be mispronounced. Following vocal criticism of an initial revision to Iowa’s science education standards that stripped ...
