Dinosaurs were 'too successful for their own good'
The migration of the dinosaurs across the globe was so rapid that it may have contributed to their demise, new research has found.
View ArticleIs species richness increasing? Insight into an intense ecological debate
Scientists are debating whether and why it appears that the number of species at sites worldwide is holding steady (even increasing at many), as biodiversity declines globally.
View ArticleBiologists create toolkit for tuning genetic circuits
Rice University scientists have created a toolkit for synthetic biologists who need to precisely tune the input and output levels of genetic circuits.

View ArticleResearchers extend power of gene editing by developing a new class of DNA...
Scientists at Harvard University and the Broad Institute of MIT and Harvard have developed a new class of genome editing tool. This new "base editor" can directly repair the type of single-letter...
View ArticleKey to expanding genetic code described
Yale scientists have described the atomic structure of a protein that is the key tool in efforts by synthetic biologists to expand the genetic code.
View ArticleRisk of Caesarean section is heritable—Natural selection cannot reduce the...
During the last decades, rates of Caesarean section have multiplied; by now it is one of the most frequently performed surgical treatments worldwide. Even if many of these C-sections are not strictly...
View ArticleVermont sees modern-day record for bald eagle reproduction
The number of bald eagles that successfully nested in Vermont and raised young set a modern-day record this year, advancing the state's years long effort to restore the bird, according to state...
View ArticleUnexpected regulation of transcription factors critical to development
A team of developmental biologists at the University of Massachusetts Amherst led by Dominique Alfandari, with others at MIT, report in a new paper that they have for the first time described how two...
View ArticleHealth researchers visualize a life in silico
Programming a molecular biology experiment can be similar to playing Sudoku; both are simple if you're working with only a few molecules or a small grid, but they explode in complexity as they grow....
View ArticleGlobal research team fills language gap in plant science
To keep pace with the fast-evolving study of cellular plant science, an international team of researchers has created terminology and definitions likely to become everyday language in laboratories and...
View ArticleScientists create endocytosis on demand by 'hotwiring' cells
A solution to the problem of creating endocytosis on demand is being compared to 'hotwiring' a car.
View ArticleMore mouths can be fed by boosting number of plant pores
Environmental studies have shown that 40% of the atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO2) passes through plant stomata every year. Thus, controlling stomatal development and function is considered as a key for...
View ArticleGraceful menace: States take aim at non-native swans
With its snow-white plumage and elegant posture, mute swans are exalted in European ballets and fairy tales as symbols of love and beauty. But to many wildlife biologists, they are aggressive and...
View ArticleNewly described 'parasol' sponges are graceful but deadly (to small crustaceans)
When most people think of sponges, they think of squishy, soap-filled kitchen sponges, or perhaps the graceful barrel sponges that grow around coral reefs. But in the dark depths of the ocean, some...
View ArticleEvolutionary ecology could benefit beekeepers battling diseases
Some commercial beekeeping practices may harm honeybees more than help them, scientists warn in a paper published in the journal Nature Ecology & Evolution.
View ArticleYoung eagle rescued at Florida garbage collection center
Wildlife officials have rescued a juvenile bald eagle that was suffering from poisoning at a Florida trash and garbage collection center.
View ArticleAnimal coloration research: On the threshold of a new era
In the last 20 years, the field of animal coloration research has experienced explosive growth thanks to numerous technological advances, and it now stands on the threshold of a new era.
View ArticleEvolutionary biologists solve puzzle of evolutionary relationships among...
Using the largest and most informative molecular phylogenetic dataset ever analysed, evolutionary biologists were able to construct a new phylogenetic tree of jawed vertebrates. This new tree resolves...
