Some genes are passed on from parent to offspring without ever being part of a nuclear chromosome. Where are these genes found, and how does this non-nuclear inheritance occur? But why is leaf color ...

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 ...

A new study published in Nature Biotechnology describes a novel approach that alters the rules of chromosome segregation in Caenorhabditis elegans resulting in non-Mendelian inheritance of entire ...
