To study growth-defense trade-offs in the context of metabolism in crops, scientists from the Universities of Potsdam and Erlangen, Max Planck Institute of Molecular Plant Physiology, and the National ...

The gut microbiome is made up of trillions of microbes that play a vital role in keeping us healthy. A disturbance in the balance of these microbes can contribute to a variety of health conditions, ...

Metabolic and regulatory networks may be expanded by coupling high-throughput phenotyping and gene expression data with the predictions of a computational model. (Reprinted with permission, Nature, ...

After so many years of learning how microbes work, researchers are now digitally recreating their inner workings to tackle challenges ranging from climate change to space colonization. In my work as a ...

A new tool allows researchers to probe the metabolic processes occurring within the leaves, stems, and roots of a key citrus crop, the clementine. The big picture goal of this research is to improve ...

Disturbances to the gut microbiome contribute to health conditions like inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). To better understand how those microbes interact with each other and their environment, ...

Understanding human gene function in living organisms has long been hampered by fundamental differences between species. Although mice share most protein-coding genes with humans, their regulatory ...

Inocras, a bioinformatics-led company harnessing the power of whole genome data and proprietary analytics to deliver curated insights that advance precision health, today announced that "DNAChunker: ...
