BiologyBetter Lactobacillus Strains can be achieved using DNA Base Editing instead of Copying and Pasting A Kobe University team was able to edit the DNA of Lactobacillus strains directly without a template from other organisms. This technique is indistinguishable from natural variation…
BiologyHow the Early Embryo’s DNA Self-organizes An international research team led by Helmholtz Munich has, for the first time, provided a detailed insight into how the spatial organization of genetic material…
BiologyA Study on the Reliability of Insect Behavioral Tests has been Released A recent study provides evidence that some results of behavioural experiments with insects cannot be fully reproduced. So far, possible reproducibility problems have been little…
TechnologyA New Method makes AI adaptable for Computer Vision in Agricultural Breeding Scientists developed a machine-learning tool that can teach itself, with minimal external guidance, to differentiate between aerial images of flowering and nonflowering grasses – an…
BiologyExperimental Avian Flu Vaccine Outperforms in Animal Models A vaccine under development at the University at Buffalo has demonstrated complete protection in mice against a deadly variant of the virus that causes bird…
BiologyVideo Demonstrates how Animals Use Energy Energy scarcity is a central driver of animal behavior and evolution. The amazing diversity of life on this planet is a testament to the plethora…
BiologyHow Bacteria employ covert Chemistry to Disrupt Plant Defenses In the microscopic battlefield of plant-microbe interactions, plants are constantly fighting off invading bacteria. New research reveals just how clever these bacterial invaders can be.…
BiologyLarge Brains and Large Ranges may not enough to Protect Birds from Climate Change Biologists have long debated why some plants and animals can adjust to a wide range of climates, while others can’t. Understanding why could help conservation…
BiologyMechanisms of TB Immune System Evasion are revealed using a Light-activated Probe Tuberculosis (TB) is an infectious disease that kills more than a million people worldwide every year. The pathogen that causes the disease, Mycobacterium tuberculosis, is deadly…
BiologyA Gene Editing Tech is repurposed by Scientists to help reveal hidden Microbial Diversity Pioneering research has repurposed a gene editing tool to help shed light on the true biodiversity present in natural environments. The study, led by the…
AgricultureA Step Closer to Plant-based Gelatin Researchers present gum tragacanth as a plant-based alternative to gelatin for creating edible films. The team developed films containing different concentrations of gelatin and gum…
