Human genetic diversity and evolution rely on new mutations and exchange of DNA between chromosomes during the generation of sex cells, in a process called recombination. Recombination manifests ...

While this shuffling, known as recombination, is essential for genetic diversity, errors in the process can lead to serious reproductive issues. These failures can result in genetic errors that ...

New Georgia Tech research shows bacteria form distinct species and maintain cohesion through frequent DNA exchange via ...

However, new findings from Konstantinidis and his team suggest otherwise, positing that bacteria not only form species but also maintain cohesion within these species through mechanisms that closely ...
