Unique genes create new species of monkeyflower

Monkeyflowers glow in a rich assortment of colors, from yellow to pink to deep red-orange. But about 5 million years ago, some of them lost their yellow.

Large-scale differentiation of iPSC-derived motor neurons from ALS patients

A new Cedars-Sinai study in collaboration with the University of California, Irvine (UCI) and the Answer ALS consortium has examined the expression of thousands of genes in stem cell generated motor neurons that are known to die in patients with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, a fatal neurological disorder known as ALS or Lou Gehrig's disease.

DNA analysis reveals the existence of juvenile coastal cod off the west coast of Sweden

The rumor that the coastal cod is extinct is not true. Through DNA analysis, researchers at the University of Gothenburg have identified that there are still juvenile coastal cod off the west coast of Sweden. However, it is still difficult to find any mature adult cod in the area.

Researchers report the genome-wide atlas of chromatin-accessibility during stomatal development

Researchers at Nagoya University in Japan, the University of Texas at Austin, and the University of Washington have elucidated a mechanism that makes tiny plant stem cells destined to give rise to stomata, cellular valves of plants that facilitate global carbon cycles.

Elaborating three-dimensional coordination of cell-division site positioning in a cyanobacterium

Cyanobacteria are considered to be the earliest oxygenic photosynthetic organisms present on Earth, and they have played crucial roles in the progress of the environment and life on the planet. Today, cyanobacteria are still found extravagantly in several ecological niches.
