From the tiniest bacterium to the largest blue whale, all living organisms are classified by their characteristics. The biologist Carolus Linnaeus first grouped organisms into two kingdoms, plants and animals, in the 1700s. However, advances in science such as the invention of powerful microscopes h...

Of the 4075 MAGs, all could be assigned to their respective kingdoms (bacterial, n = 4004; archaeal, n = 71) and most could be assigned to known taxonomy at the phylum, class, order, and family levels (Fig. 2a, c). However, at the species level, only 451 (11.07%) of ...
Dr. Nelson’s work clearly revealed that when the human brain is starved of input, of many diverse inputs it needs to fully develop, the development is stunted and ill-equipped to manage a never-ending changing, evolving diverse world, both in the human and animal kingdoms as well as in...
coact - act together, as of organisms volunteer, offer - agree freely; "She volunteered to drive the old lady home"; "I offered to help with the dishes but the hostess would not hear of it" get around to - do something despite obstacles such as lack of time; "He finally got around...
Iron is a conserved factor as a microelement and signal that potentially modulates defense response against invaders in animal and plant kingdoms during evolution. Plant iron status is a key indicator of plant-pathogen interactions and particular defense responses. Fe supply modulation leads to different...

The large and diverse land plant lineage is nested within a clade of fresh water green algae, the charophytes. Collection of genome-scale data for land plants and other organisms over the past decade has invigorated the field of evolutionary biology. One of the core questions in the field ask...
