DNA time stamps reveal the strawberry’s surprising origins
Why this matters: new research or scientific developments with potential real-world impact.
Researchers have created a new way to reconstruct the evolutionary history of complex plant genomes by analyzing genetic traces left by transposable elements. The technique revealed that modern strawberries were assembled through multiple ancient genome-merging events, shedding new light on how majo
