Modern humans descended from not one, but at least two ancestral populations that drifted apart and later reconnected, long before modern humans spread across the globe.

They are, therefore, of interest not only to evolutionary biologists, but also to researchers in the fields of functional genomics and disease genetics. Both negative selection acting against ...

The AT&T Hotel and Conference Center, located on UT’s Austin campus, is technically a university-owned venue, though it ...

Utilizing sophisticated analyses grounded in complete genome sequences, researchers at the University of Cambridge have ...

Natural selection was not needed in this explanation. It wasn't until the 1930s that a number of scientists in different fields began to reconcile the findings of genetics and inheritance with ...

Emma Briggs, a beef cattle systems specialist at K-State’s Western Kansas Research-Extension Center in Hays, said selecting the right bull is one of the most important decisions a cattle producer can ...

How are humans contributing to negative selection? It's a part of evolution that can also drive some species to extinction; models of negative selection help us understand biodiversity.

The intensification of livestock production systems is a prerequisite to meet the growing demand for animal products. Genetic selection, assisted reproductive technologies and optimized reproduction ...

Charles Darwin developed the theory of evolution by natural selection. All living species are classified using the system developed by Linnaeus. Genetic modification - Edexcel Genetic modification ...
