Medical Xpress / Fast-spreading malaria parasite mutations in Uganda may weaken Africa's most widely used malaria therapy
Researchers searching for genetic clues to the growing problem of malaria drug resistance have identified new mutations associated with the parasite's decreased susceptibility to current treatment. By sequencing the whole ...
Phys.org / Trying to compete with China could slow global climate action, report warns
China's dominance of key green technologies is helping to subsidize the global transition to a low-carbon economy, but trade tensions could make it harder for other countries to meet their climate targets, according to a ...
Phys.org / A small squeeze reveals new clues about an unusual kind of magnet
Researchers at Rice University have found that gently squeezing a crystal of iron sulfide can change two of its unusual properties at the same time: its tiny magnetic signal and the way electricity moves through it. The result ...
Phys.org / Researcher is trying to save biodiverse landscapes, one unkempt garden at a time
You've probably seen it before: A native garden starts out lush and intentional, then slowly unravels. A meadow is overtaken by weeds. Native grasses are cut down to sad little stumps. A pollinator garden somehow loses its ...
Phys.org / Researchers identify ways to reduce the lag between biodiversity data and action
Biodiversity is enormously diverse, unevenly observed and constantly in motion across space and time. This makes it far harder to monitor than many other parts of the environment. As a result, managing biodiversity often ...
Phys.org / Despite appearing to recover, sunflowers retain drought damage
Sunflowers are unable to fully recover from drought, new research has found, contradicting previous findings on the plant's ability to reverse drought-induced failure of water-transporting tissues and revealing new insights ...
