For some young fish, early gene expression is a clear harbinger of fated lifestyle

... similarity in gene expression between populations sharing the same life history--but being genetically very divergent and occupying different habitats--suggests that the genetic program of a given life history has been a highly selected attribute during the evolution of brown trout populations. The finding...

Researchers map of genetic variations implicated in disease

...is up to 200-fold less variant between chromosomes sharing part of the same HLA type, suggesting these individuals most likely shared a common ancestor as recently as 50,000 years ago." Swapping of ancestral sequence blocks is a potential mechanism (identity-by-descent) whereby certain gene combinations, w...

HIV/AIDS rates in Tijuana, Mexico increasing at alarming rate

... affected by HIV/AIDS in the border region, needle sharing among injection drug users leads to increased HIV infection, and Tijuana is on a major drug-trafficking route. The model used in the study suggests that injection drug use and sex trade may be driving the HIV epidemic in Tijuana. The population's m...
