Even as humpbacks rebound in number, their genomes reveal a loss of genetic diversity and a buildup of harmful mutations left ...

Historic climate change influenced northeast India primates’ evolution, distribution, and decline, stressing conservation urgency.

Scientists have reconstructed the head of an ancient human relative from 1.5 million year-old fossilized bones and teeth. But ...

A major evolutionary theory says most genetic changes don’t really matter, but new evidence suggests that’s not true. Researchers found that helpful mutations happen surprisingly often. The twist is ...

Gut bacteria rapidly adapt to processed food additives, revealing how modern diets can reshape microbial evolution worldwide.

A team of biologists from Heinrich Heine University Düsseldorf (HHU), along with researchers from Bochum and Paris, has ...

Researchers identified the fruitless gene as a key regulator of social begging behaviour in male honeybees. Acting during brain development, the gene controls a neural network required for cooperative ...

Denisovans were an extinct human group identified almost entirely through DNA rather than complete skeletons. First discovered in Siberia, their genetic legacy is still present in populations across ...

Ultra-processed diets are driving gut bacteria to evolve rapidly at a genetic level. Microbes now switch on DNA fragments to ...

Why did humans evolve the eyes we have today? While scientists can't go back in time to study the environmental pressures ...

Scientists have discovered that brown bears living near human settlements in Italy have become smaller and less aggressive in the process of evolution. This was reported by Science X magazine on ...

With AI image and video generators, it's become easier than ever to create hyper-realistic clips of almost anything. Today, we're looking at the landscape of AI influencers that depict Black people in ...
