For more than a century, heredity has been framed through the tidy logic of Mendel’s pea plants: traits pass from parent to ...

A mouse study shows that about 7% of inherited DNA methylation patterns follow non-Mendelian rules, revealing unexpected ...

New research has uncovered more about the complexity of human gene regulation by identifying certain sequences of proteins called transcription factors that bind to DNA and regulate the expression of ...

In Mendelian inheritance patterns, you receive one version of a gene, called an allele, from each parent. These alleles can be dominant or recessive. Non-Mendelian genetics don’t completely follow ...

Mice show that DNA methylation tags can defy Mendel’s inheritance rules by appearing in offspring even when neither parent ...
