The temporal and functional relationships between the DNA events of meiotic recombination and the synaptonemal complex (SC), a meiosis-specific structure formed between homolog axes, are subjects ...

Researchers at the IPK Leibniz Institute have discovered a previously unknown protein that is central to plant reproduction. The protein SCEP3 enables plants to mix and precisely distribute their ...

Meiosis is the generation of germ cells (eggs and sperm). In meiosis, DNA replication is followed by two division cycles: meiosis I, which segregates homologous chromosomes and meiosis II, which ...

The zebrafish that accompanied the Chinese astronauts on last year's Shenzhou XVIII mission set a record for being the longest surviving fish in space, according to the professor researching them.

Background: nanotechnology is one of the fastest-growing areas, and it is expected to have a substantial economic and social impact in the upcoming years. Gold particles (AuNPs) offer an opportunity ...

In this work, we carried out neurochemical and behavioral analysis of zebrafish (Danio rerio) treated with rotenone, an agent used to chemically induce a syndrome resembling Parkinson’s disease (PD).

IPK Team Identifies SCEP3 as Crucial Meiosis Protein Leibniz Institute of Plant Genetics and Crop Plant Research Meiosis is a crucial process for sexual reproduction. It produces germ cells with a ...

Comparison of glioma models established in mice and zebrafish. This review aim to examine the structural and genetic features of the zebrafish brain, the mechanisms underlying glioma pathogenesis, and ...

X-ray “Histotomography” built on the basic principles of CT can be used to create 3D images of zebrafish at resolutions one thousand times greater than CT, enabling the visualization of cell nuclei ...
