New research from Max Planck Institute reveals how plants defend their genomes from invasion by chloroplast DNA.

a DNA modification already known in animals and plants that targets and silences so-called "jumping genes." However, 5mC alone could not explain the second wave of extensive methylation ...

Biologists have investigated the inner workings of DNA methylation in plants. Their findings could help engineer crops that are more resilient to environmental changes, like heat or drought stress.

Research shows specific plant foods rich in methyl adaptogens can reverse biological aging by approximately 2 years over 8 ...

Chinese researchers recently uncovered molecular evidence supporting Lamarckism—a long-debated theory from the early 19th ...

Scientists have uncovered a critical role for rapid DNA repair in maintaining genome stability. A new study reveals that ...

A study found that foods rich in methyl adaptogens like turmeric, garlic, and berries were associated with a reduction in ...

The health industry focuses on age reversing. A study suggests plant-based diets slow biological ageing. It highlights the ...

Zhong’s new research focuses on DNA methylation ... The question is — why do plants need extra methylation enzymes?” Looking forward, Zhong’s research could pave the way for innovations ...
