A new study suggests that the long-standing Mendelian view of genetics has some blind spots.

For more than a century, heredity has been framed through the tidy logic of Mendel’s pea plants: traits pass from parent to ...

Genetics influences who of us are more likely to experience a relationship breakdown, and who are more likely to remain ...

A new review highlights how human evolution has shaped the presence of pathogenic variations in DNA damage repair (DDR) genes, offering a new perspective on why modern populations face increased ...

Phenotypic variation and genetic diversity are fundamental to the resilience and adaptability of plant populations. Phenotypic variation encompasses observable differences in morphology, physiology ...

In a comprehensive Genomic Press Invited Expert Review, researchers from the University of Haifa have synthesized cutting-edge findings on Prader-Willi syndrome (PWS), revealing how this complex ...

For Celine Uhrich, movement is no longer about pressure — it's about healing. On a quiet yoga mat, the college student reconnects with her body one stretch at a time. But that relationship hasn’t ...

Genetic variation within Drosophila populations underpins our understanding of how organisms adapt to changing environments. As a premier model, Drosophila offers finely resolved genomic tools and ...

Here’s what you’ll learn when reading this story: However, Mendelism—with its more elegant explanations and simple Punnett squares—largely won the conversation, and became the dominant view on ...
