动物植物新技术可以记录菌落中每个细菌细胞的基因活性
Analyzing the gene activity of every single bacterial cell in a colony? A new technique from Würzburg can do this much more efficiently than other methods.

Researchers are zeroing in on the Achilles' heel of pathogens that cause Chagas disease, sleeping sickness and leishmaniasis.
阅读全文动物植物不可预测的光照破坏了鸟类的生物性别差异
Light helps us wake up, keeps us alert, and guides our sleep. But what happens when light becomes erratic? As a researcher studying molecular biology and animal stress responses, I've been fascinated by how environmental changes affect living organisms i
阅读全文动物植物利用CRISPR-Cas对蜘蛛进行的首次基因编辑产生了五颜六色的丝
The University of Bayreuth's Biomaterials research group has, for the first time, successfully applied the CRISPR-Cas9 gene-editing tool to spiders. Following the genetic modification, the spiders produced red fluorescent silk.
阅读全文动物植物数据库揭示了重要的海洋联系，以帮助保护
Scientists have launched an interactive global map to show the migratory patterns of more than 100 marine species in an effort to protect at-risk wildlife.

Roughly 140 million to 100 million years ago, the piece of land that is modern day Australia was located much further south on Earth. In fact, what is now Victoria was once within the polar circle, up to 80 degrees south of the equator and shrouded in dar
阅读全文动物植物人工智能视觉系统揭示鸟类翅膀的进化是为了调节热量，而不仅仅是飞行
For centuries, scientists have observed that animals in warmer climates have longer limbs—a pattern known as Allen's Rule. Long attributed to the need to maintain body temperature, the precise mechanism that gave rise to this pattern has remained poorly
阅读全文动物植物强效分子靶向衣原体细菌，同时保护有益微生物
Researchers at Umeå University, Sweden, and Michigan State University, U.S., have discovered a type of molecule that can kill chlamydia bacteria, but spare bacteria that are important for health. The discovery opens the door for further research toward de
阅读全文动物植物哺乳动物的寿命与大脑大小和免疫系统功能有关
Why do cats generally live longer than dogs? New research suggests that longer lifespans of mammals like cats could be linked to their bigger brains and more complex immune systems.
阅读全文动物植物成像技术追踪单个细菌细胞离开生物膜群落的过程
An innovative imaging technique developed at Carnegie Mellon University reveals single bacterial cells leaving their biofilm community. Watching the bacteria in real-time at high resolution affords unprecedented views that advance the understanding of how
阅读全文动物植物爆炸性进化：研究揭示珊瑚礁鱼类的快速多样化
The biodiversity of Earth's oceans is disproportionately concentrated in coral reefs—the vibrant undersea ecosystems where thousands of known marine species reside.
阅读全文动物植物昂贵的捕捞：研究揭示了金枪鱼捕捞设备对全球海洋生物的惊人成本
They are large rafts that drift thousands of kilometers across the ocean surface, moving with the currents in an otherwise featureless marine environment. Tracked by satellites, the rudimentary floats—which may also be outfitted with long, submerged tails
