Long-term studies allow us to do that by giving us a front-row seat to evolution in action." The paper, "Long-term studies provide unique insights into evolution," is the first-ever comprehensive ...

Sometimes, the most significant scientific discoveries happen by accident. Scientists have long known that whole-genome duplication (WGD)—the process by which organisms copy all their genetic material ...

The four-nation Eurofighter programme has marked a significant advance towards a mid-life upgrade for the type, with the signature of a contract for Part 1 of the long-term evolution effort’s ...

The paper, "Long-term studies provide unique insights into evolution," is the first-ever comprehensive analysis of these types of long-term evolutionary studies, and examines some of the ...

Evolved macroscopic "snowflake" yeast from the MuLTEE experiment. The large size of the nuclei (yellow) and cells (cyan) are results of whole-genome duplication and aneuploidy. Sometimes, the most ...
