At the start of June, Grow a Garden launched a Bizzy Bees Event, where friendly pollinators can bring a new mutation to your plants. However, there is also an ...

A team led by Rutgers University-New Brunswick engineers has developed a portable device capable of detecting rare genetic mutations from a single drop of blood.

A rare genetic mutation in a European sperm donor has reportedly caused cancer in 10 children, highlighting the need for improved genetic screening and family limits in sperm donation.

A sperm donor with a rare genetic mutation linked to cancer is sparking debate about regulation of the practice. In the years between 2008 and 2015, sperm from the same donor was used to conceive ...

A strange genetic mutation has been discovered in wild jaguars, leaving scientists torn between excitement and concern. Is this evolution at work or a random genetic anomaly? In this video, we ...

This guide covers how Mutations work, how to trigger them, and which ones offer the best returns, so let’s get into the nitty-gritty. What are Mutations in Grow a Garden?

This Strange Mutation Explains the Mystifying Color of Orange Cats Your orange cat may host a never-before-seen genetic pathway for color pigmentation, according to new studies ...

They knew from the preponderance of male orange cats that the mutation—dubbed sex-linked orange—was somewhere on the X chromosome. (As in most mammals, females have XX while males have XY sex ...

Orange cat lovers rejoice! Scientists might not be convinced that “orange behavior” is really a thing, but after over a century of suspicion, they’ve finally pinpointed the genetic mutation ...

Another SIK3 mutation was previously found to trigger hypersomnia, or the need for more sleep. This study found that one amino acid in this gene, known as S551, is especially important when it ...

A newly identified mutation helps super-sleepers get by on just four to six hours of shut-eye per night, while the rest of us need around eight hours. Researchers described the SIK3-N783Y mutation ...

A recent study has reported that a mutation in salt-induced kinase 3 (hSIK3-N783Y)—a gene critical for regulating sleep duration and depth—may be the reason why some people are natural short ...
