Scientists found that DNA once dismissed as "junk" helps chromosomes find their partners

Repetitive DNA near chromosome centers forms a unique barcode for partner recognition. This barcode guides chromosomes to their correct partners during egg cell development. When this DNA barcode is disrupted, chromosomes pair incorrectly or fail to pair. A quality-control system eliminates eggs with such errors before they mature. This discovery revives an old idea about "junk" DNA's role in repr...

Scientists found evolutionary highways in animal genomes dating back 600 million years

By examining thousands of genomes along with fragments of ancient chromosomes, researchers uncovered the intricate journey of animal evolution. Their findings highlight how chromosomes merged and changed over epochs, with some species retaining ancestral structures while others underwent significant reorganization. Notably, the fusion of chromosomes peaked approximately 550 million years ago, leav...

From Tokyo to London, heatwaves send men to work in shorts

Japan’s capital led the way. This year the metropolitan govt’s long-standing no-tie, no-jacket “Cool Biz” campaign took a step further by encouraging its staff to ditch long trousers, and even try T-shirts and sneakers.
