Innovative Cross-Species Transplantation: Creating Rat Offspring from Ovarian Oocytes

Attempts to obtain eggs and offspring using oocytes in ovary have been made for keeping desirable traits in livestock, preserving human fertility, etc. Ovarian transplantation, one of those methods, has been established and widely used. Although transplantation to different species is expected to bring benefits, it is still too difficult to produce offspring. Researchers have

Unlocking the Genetic Code: The Secret to Parrot Color Diversity Revealed

From the Carnival in Rio de Janeiro to the shoulders of pirates: parrots are synonymous with color for people across the world. In a new study, scientists uncover a 'switch' in the DNA of parrots that controls their wide gamut of colors. From the Carnival in Rio de Janeiro to the shoulders of pirates: parrots

Unraveling the Jaw-Dropping Evolutionary Origin of Lampreys: Nature’s Ancient Marvels

admin -
Lampreys are one of only two living jawless vertebrates Jaws are formed by a key stem cell population called the neural crest New research reveals the gene regulatory changes that may explain morphological differences between jawed and jawless vertebrates. One of just two vertebrates without a jaw, sea lampreys that are wreaking havoc in Midwestern

Eyes for Love: How Male Dragonfishes Evolve Bigger Eyes to Attract Females in the Deep Sea

admin -
The eyes of the male dragonfish grow larger for mate seeking, a sexual dimorphism that makes the dragonfish an anomaly in vertebrate evolution, researchers report. A small but ferocious predator, the male dragonfish will apparently do anything for love. Or at least to find a mate. A new study by researchers at Boston College found

Revolutionizing Mosquito Control: Genetic Breeding Solutions for Population Management

admin -
Researchers have found a new way to identify genetic targets useful for control of mosquito populations, potentially offering an alternative to insecticides. Their study focused on the genetic basis of species incompatibility. They crossed Ae. aegypti, a major global arboviral disease vector, and its sibling species, Ae. mascarensis, from the Indian Ocean. When offspring is

Understanding Nitrogen Emissions: The Unexpected Cooling Effect and Climate Implications

admin -
An international team of researchers has found that nitrogen emissions from fertilizers and fossil fuels have a net cooling effect on the climate. But they warn increasing atmospheric nitrogen has further damaging effects on the environment, calling for an urgent reduction in greenhouse gas emissions to halt global warming. An international team of researchers has

Impact of Warming vs. Cooling on Greenland’s Firn: Key Insights

admin -
A new study finds disproportionate effects of temperature shifts on an icy glacier layer. Scientists have known from ice core research that it's easier to melt an ice sheet than to freeze it up again. Now, they know at least part of the reason why, and it has to do with ice's "sponginess," according to

Quantifying Solar Absorption by Black Carbon in Fire Clouds: Key Insights and Implications

admin -
Aerosol scientists quantify the extent of light absorption by black carbon in fire clouds to better model climate impacts of extreme wildfire events. In an actively warming world, large-scale wildfires are becoming more common. These wildfires emit black carbon to our atmosphere, one of the most potent short-lived atmospheric warming agents. This is because of

Great Salt Lake: Major Contributor to Greenhouse Gas Emissions – Discover the Environmental Impact

admin -
Newly announced research examining greenhouse gas emissions from the drying lake bed of Great Salt Lake, Utah, calculates that 4.1 million tons of carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases were released in 2020. This research suggests that drying lake beds are an overlooked but potentially significant source of greenhouse gases, which may further increase due

Climate-Smart Coffee: Scientists Unlock Sustainable Brewing Solutions

admin -
Coffee beans consumed across the globe come from two species: Coffea arabica and Coffea canephora. By 2050, about 80% of Arabica production is predicted to decrease because of climate change. Researchers are investigating to see if they can find alternative coffee cultivars. Crave that cup of coffee in the morning? Globally, consumers drink more than

New research shows California's Central Valley, known as America's breadbasket, gets as much as half of its groundwater from the Sierra Nevadas. This is significant for a farming region that, in some parts, relies almost entirely on groundwater for irrigation. New research shows that California's Central Valley, known as America's breadbasket, gets as much as
