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 ...

These findings suggest that consuming foods categorized as methyl adaptogens may reduce markers of epigenetic aging.” In a ...

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.

A study has found that consuming certain plant-based foods, such as green tea, garlic, and berries, may slow biological aging ...

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

Green tea, turmeric and berries – all classed as ‘methyl adaptogens’ – are amongst the foods that can help reverse biological ...

Hainan University research shows AI language models can decode plant DNA sequences to accelerate agricultural improvements.

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

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 ...
