Saving the Snow Leopard With Stem Cells
January 23, 2012 — The survival of the endangered snow leopard is looking promising thanks to scientists who have, for the first time, produced embryonic stem-like cells from the tissue of an adult ... > full story -
Genetic Buzzer-Beater Genes May Save Fish
November 29, 2011 — Two distinct populations of rainbow trout -- one in Alaska, the other in Idaho -- share a genetic trait that could have huge implications for fisheries conservation and management, an eight-member ... > full story -
Fertilized Oocytes Digest Paternal Mitochondria
November 3, 2011 — During fertilization, the entire spermatozoon enters the oocyte. However, most of its organelles, including mitochondria, are not transmitted to the offspring. A new study demonstrates for the first ... > full story -
Inadequate Supply of Protein Building Blocks May Explain Pregnancy Failures in Bovine Cloning Experiments
October 26, 2011 — Amino acids, the building blocks of proteins, are essential to support the normal growth of a developing embryo and the placenta. An insufficient supply of amino acids in the mother’s uterus ... > full story -
Scientists First to Characterize Barley Plant-Stem Rust Spore 'Communication'
October 13, 2011 — Scientists have established that a barley plant recognizes an invader and begins to marshal its defenses within five minutes of an attack. The discovery, along with the scientists' successful cloning ... > full story -
