New research in C. elegans from scientists at Howard Hughes Medical Institute (HHMI) helps explain how changes in the parents’ lysosomes that promote longevity are transferred to their offspring.

Salt stress remains a critical challenge for plant growth, especially in crops like pea (Pisum sativum L.). This study explores the role of histone modifications in regulating pea's response to salt ...

Epigenetic changes, such as DNA methylation, chromatin remodeling, and histone modifications, regulate gene expression without altering the DNA sequence. This review systematically analyzed over 500 ...
