Selective breeding appears to have broadly reshaped the brain networks dogs use to process human voices, words and other ...

A new study has shown that selective breeding can lead to a modest rise in coral heat tolerance. The study documents the world s first effort to selectively breed adult corals for enhanced heat ...

As climate change reshapes farming conditions and consumer demand shifts, traits preserved in traditional breeds may become increasingly valuable. The post Traditional cattle herds' diversity hit by ...

A study from researchers at Durham University has found that the process of domestication and selective breeding has limited the ability of domestic dogs to use facial expressions to convey effective ...

Our research group has bred corals able to better survive marine heatwaves. Our work, now published in Nature Communications, shows that it is possible to improve coral heat tolerance even within a ...

A new study reveals the genetic load of deleterious variations in different dog breeds, highlighting the genetic damage done by hundreds of years of selective breeding. When the symbiotic relationship ...

A packed collection of newly produced pythons showcases years of selective breeding and genetic experimentation. The snakes ...

Australia’s vital kelp forests are disappearing in many areas as our waters warm and our climate changes. While we wait for rapid action to slash carbon emissions – including the United Nations ...

Decades of selective breeding and intensive agricultural practices have reshaped cattle genetics—often at the expense of ...
