This drawing shows raw data for the relative positions of genes associated with 20 sex-linked characteristics of <i>Drosophila</i>. The linear arrangement of genes is inferred from these data.

In Sturtevant’s gene map, six traits are arranged along a linear chromosome according to the relative distance of each from trait B. Trait B is located at the far left of the gene map at ...

The spatial arrangement of genetic material within the cell nucleus plays an important role in the development of an organism. A research team has developed a method to trace the chromosomes in ...

The spatial arrangement of genetic material within the cell nucleus plays an important role in the development of an organism. A research team from the University of Basel, in collaboration with ...

Five years later, that test has evolved into a series of experiments that, in essence, shake biologists' understanding of how chromosomes are organized and how genes interact. Harshey's findings ...

A research team led by André Marques at the Max Planck Institute for Plant Breeding Research in Cologne, Germany, has uncovered the profound effects of an atypical mode of chromosome arrangement ...

It has been suspected that higher doses of genes such as TLR7 make people with two X chromosomes more resistant to many infectious diseases but also more prone to autoimmune conditions.

Because groups of genes on the mouse chromosomes, 16, 17, and 10 are the same as those on human chromosome 21, this now gives us a way of identifying which genes are important in learning and ...
