Abstract. The phylum Bryozoa is an understudied, yet commonly-occurring, globally distributed bilaterian metazoan organismal group. They have a colonial li

Understanding the genomic basis of diversification is a central goal in evolutionary biology. In recent years, the development and use of pangenomes, a genomic representation of multiple individuals ...

Abstract. Clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats (CRISPR) and CRISPR-associated (Cas) systems of bacteria and archaea provide immunities

Nature Reviews Genetics, Published online: 18 November 2025; doi:10.1038/s41576-025-00907-1CRISPR-based genome editing has revolutionized biotechnology, enabling precise DNA modifications for research and therapy. The authors review how artificial intelligence, including deep learning, is advancing genome editing by improving guide RNA design, editor protein engineering, novel effector discovery and predicting editing outcomes.

Reindeer is an iconic species in the Arctic and subarctic but populations are declining. An environmental quality standard for reindeer populations assess their overall status (poor, medium, and good...

The phylum Bryozoa is an understudied, yet commonly-occurring, globally distributed bilaterian metazoan organismal group. They have a colonial lifestyle and an evolutionary history that spans at least...

Abstract. The evolutionary history of eukaryotic supergroups has been investigated primarily by large-scale phylogenomics, but one major hindrance to conti

There are many more species of peacock spider than other animals, scientists think they may know why.

In this Review, the authors summarize our current understanding of nuclear pre-mRNA and mRNA decay pathways. They describe how aberrantly processed mRNAs are targeted for decay in the nucleus and how ...

Climate-driven changes in the Subarctic will directly impact capelin populations and the ecosystem they inhabit, including their predators, prey, and physical habitats. Consequently, incorporating eco...

Mutations within promoters and coding sequences are both involved in adaptation, but their relative contributions remain to be compared directly. Using the fungal enzyme cytosine deaminase, we examine...

Lanternfishes (Myctophidae) are one of the most abundant and species diverse orders inhabiting the mesopelagic zone. Exploitation of marine resources has recently attracted increased interest. It is t...
