Bacteria are among the smallest living things. A single bacterium consists of just one cell. Not all bacteria are harmful. There are different unicellular organisms and types of bacteria. Yeast are ...

This is a preview. Log in through your library . Abstract For unicellular organisms, a lack of effects of local species richness on ecosystem function has been proposed due to their locally high ...

The oceans are home to innumerable creatures, from minute bacteria to the mighty blue whale. Amid this, there are various unicellular organisms which exist. These organisms have a single cell, which ...

A ubiquitous but little-known marine organism, the choanoflagellate, is the last one-celled ancestor of humans and provides insight into how cells learned to assemble into multicelled organisms. The ...

Images of the multicellular development of the ichthyosporean Chromosphaera perkinsii, a close cousin of animals. In red, the membranes and in blue the nuclei with their DNA. The image was obtained ...

Norman Pace has a problem with prokaryotes. It’s not that Pace has anything against the organisms themselves. The microbiologist and RNA scientist from the University of Colorado at Boulder has made a ...

The study of these microorganisms will make it possible to better understand the processes of changes in DNA and RNA MOSCOW, August 4. /TASS/. Scientists from Tyumen State University and Papanin ...

The transition to multicellularity enabled the evolution of large, complex organisms, but early steps in this transition remain poorly understood. Here we show that multicellular complexity, including ...

An international team of researchers has achieved an unprecedented milestone: the creation of mouse stem cells capable of generating a fully developed mouse using genetic tools from a unicellular ...

Molecular cloning is usually carried out on one gene or small DNA segment at a time. However, cloning technology has advanced to the stage that scientists have begun cloning genomes of entire ...
