A first of its kind C. elegans study uncovers the diversity and evolution of gene regulation
A new paper in GENETICS shows how multiple strains of C. elegans developed their own unique methods for controlling gene activity.

Science & PublishingThe little worm that could (escape light): a single nerve cell helps C. elegans escape harmful UV exposure
It’s hard to imagine, but the tiny, translucent roundworm called C. elegans has approximately 20,470 protein-coding genes—about the same number as humans. This is perhaps one of the many reasons why this common worm was the first multicellular organism to have its genome completely sequenced during the Human Genome Project in 1998. Studying C. elegans…

Science & PublishingA plant biologist whose seminal work led to a vision of a sustainable future
One of the most influential geneticists of our time, Dr. Joanne Chory (1955-2024), recipient of the Thomas Hunt Morgan Medal, transformed modern molecular plant biology and applied her trailblazing discoveries to some of science’s most intractable challenges.

Science & PublishingSame field, different environment: New study deciphers why maize plants flower at different times–and why it matters
A new international study in G3: Genes|Genomes|Genetics peeled back the husk of maize, revealing a hidden layer of genetic variation that explains why maize grown side by side perceive the same environment differently, and why this matters for future breeding strategies.
