A study has traced thousands of conserved regulatory elements back 300 million years, revealing deep principles of plant ...

Researchers uncovered millions of ancient plant DNA switches—some older than flowering plants themselves—revealing a hidden evolutionary blueprint stretching back 400 million years. Most people have ...

Scientists have uncovered an enormous hidden archive of plant DNA that has endured for more than 400 million years. By comparing hundreds of plant genomes, researchers identified more than 2.3 million ...

This image compares three DNA sequencing technologies: Sanger sequencing, Massively Parallel DNA sequencing, and Nanopore DNA sequencing. Sanger sequencing (left) sequences 500-700 bases per reaction ...

Genome editing-based therapies typically aim to treat disease by correcting underlying genetic mutations in patient's cells.

Scientists announced DNA storage devices capable of rewriting, erasing, and storing data for centuries ...

Around the world, scientists are exploring an unexpected solution to the growing data crisis: storing digital information in ...

Zettabytes—that’s 10 21 bytes—of data are currently generated every year. All of those cat videos have to be stored somewhere, and DNA is a great storage medium; it has amazing data density and is ...
