In a milestone in mammalian genetic engineering, a team of researchers from the Chinese Academy of Sciences succeeded in creating a viable bipaternal mouse from sperm provided by two male parents. The ...

Scientists in China have manipulated embryonic stem cells to create laboratory mice with two male parents that managed to live to adulthood - though with significant developmental abnormalities - in ...

Unisexual reproduction lacks meiotic recombination, resulting in the accumulation of deleterious mutations and hindering the creation of genetic diversity. Thus, unisexual taxa are commonly considered ...

This breakthrough paves the way for new avenues in reproductive biology In a major scientific achievement, Chinese researchers have successfully created the world's first mice with two fathers to ...

A team of researchers led by Professor Joseph Heitman has discovered procreation between genetically identical fungi Cryptococcus neoformans can result in genetic changes and diversity in their ...
