Approximately 200 million people globally live with age-related macular degeneration (AMD), with the majority affected by its ...

Meta Description: Mendel's pea plant study, rediscovered in 1900, laid the foundation for genetics, with new insights revealed in 2025.

Simon Fisher, a geneticist at the Max Planck Institute, Nijmegen, recently pointed out just how persistent (and pervasive) some of these myths are. Let’s go through some of them. Tongue rolling? Not ...

A wide range of pea phenotypes are cultivated at the Shenzhen Germplasm Resource Nursery. [Photo provided to China Daily] Mendel's work led to the discovery of genetic inheritance and the laws of ...

A team of international scientists, mainly from China and the United Kingdom, has jointly identified the genetic variants behind all seven traits used by Gregor Mendel more than 160 years ago to ...

The iconic pea plant experiments of Gregor Mendel laid the foundations for the science of genetics. Now 160 years on, an international research collaboration has used genomics, bioinformatics and ...

Hair genetics can come from either parent, and multiple genes can determine hair traits, such as color, texture, and growth. Genes can also affect hair loss.

According to current rules, an executor of an estate has until the end of the sixth month after the individual has died to pay the inheritance tax due. HMRC currently levies interest at 2.5 per ...

When Gregor Mendel published the results of his experiments on pea plants in 1866 he initiated a fierce debate about the nature of heredity and genetic determinism that continues today. The battle ...

The field of biology has been profoundly shaped by the contributions of visionary scientists whose ground breaking ...

In nature, gene inheritance typically follows Mendel's laws, which provide an equal chance for alleles to pass on to the next generation—a cornerstone of Darwinian natural selection.
