Plants, fungi, and bacteria likely contributed to insect diversity.

The first phylogenomic tree of these insects shows their diversification occurred after they split into Old and New World groups.

The blue lagoons of the Cuatro Ciénegas Basin provide a glimpse into the planet’s ancient past.

In plants ranging from liverworts to wheat, parasitic water molds build intracellular structures analogous to the nutrient-exchanging structures of symbiotic fungi.

Researchers identify a new species of Hemimastigophora protist, and suggest the group should be promoted from a phylum to a supra-kingdom.

Researchers are resurrecting proteins from millions of years ago to understand evolution and lay the groundwork for bioengineering custom molecules.

The ancient organisms appear to be more closely related to eukaryotes than previously appreciated.

The discovery of copious new archaeal species is shedding light on the tree of life and revealing some unique cellular biology.
