Can be used to recap on sexual reproduction in plants or could lead into a classroom discussion on multicellular organisms.

RPE-1 cells adapt to aneuploidy in vitro, a process characterized by reduced CIN and inflammation. This study shows that this ...

The study indicated that the high degree of inbreeding in Babraham pigs likely contributed to the quality and completeness of the genome assembly. Like humans, pigs are diploid, having two slightly ...

Varietal testing, carried out by the Department of Agriculture, Food and the Marine (DAFM), has confirmed a plateau in modern ...
