Genetic variation underpins the diversity observed within and among species, while genomic analysis provides the framework to unravel the complexity of these variations. Advances in high‐throughput ...

In the complex landscape of mental health research, a new peer-reviewed Viewpoint review sheds light on an underexplored genetic player: the trace amine-associated receptor 1 (TAAR1). Published in ...

A graph-based computational tool for detecting previously invisible genetic mutations has been developed. Researchers at the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA; USA) and the University of ...

A new international study challenges the century‑old dominance of Mendelian genetics, arguing that most traits arise from ...

This research provides a comprehensive analysis of deleterious mutations in pear (Pyrus spp.) during domestication, shedding light on their impact on agronomic traits. By resequencing 232 pear ...

The findings came from the Genome India Project, which analysed the complete DNA of 9,768 healthy people from 83 groups.

Targeted resequencing of DNA allows researchers to focus on genes of interest for cost-effective analysis of genetic variations. Typically, to analyze single nucleotide mutations and copy number ...

Scientists at UCLA and the University of Toronto have developed an advanced computational tool, called moPepGen, that helps identify previously invisible genetic mutations in proteins, unlocking new ...

Weight-loss responses to GLP-1 obesity drugs, and risks of side effects, may be linked to genetic variants, according to a study conducted by DNA-testing service 23AndMe.
