Research Update Complex life developed earlier than previously thought New evidence-based evolutionary model provides access to the beginning of complex life with unprecedented accuracy.
Research Update Fungi set the stage for life on land hundreds of millions of years earlier than thought From fossils and rare genetic ‘gene-swap’ clues, researchers reconstruct fungi’s deep timeline and reveal how they helped shape early Earth ecosystems.
Research Update Tracing brain chemistry across humanity’s family tree Small changes to an enzyme suggest how modern humans differ from Neanderthals and Denisovans in biochemistry and behavior.
Research Update Mushrooms with “massively expanded” genomes make them more adaptable to multiple lifestyles Certain Mycena strains living in the Arctic have some of the largest mushroom genomes ever described.
Research Update Oikopleura who? Species identity crisis in the genome community Genomic analysis of a widespread species of zooplankton questions our assumptions about speciation and gene regulation.
