Nematode‐trapping fungi are a unique group of filamentous organisms that have evolved sophisticated mechanisms for capturing and utilising nematodes as a nutritional resource. Their ability to switch ...
Biologists developed a method for illuminating the intricate interactions of the synaptonemal complex in the nematode C. elegans. The authors identified a trio of protein segments that guide ...
We have two copies of each chromosome in every cell in our bodies except in our reproductive cells. Sperm and egg cells contain a single copy of each chromosome with a unique mix of genes from our ...
