A new study may have uncovered why wall lizards have become the most successful reptile in the Mediterranean region. The results reveal how drastic changes in sea levels and climate 6 million years ago affected species formation in the area. The researchers believe they can now explain why the lizards became so diverse and widespread, something that has puzzled biologists since the 19th century. T

Enäggstvillingar delar samma DNA, men är inte identiskt lika. En tvilling kan vara sjuk i typ-2 diabetes, medan den andra tvillingen inte utvecklar sjukdomen. En studie som har letts av Lunds universitet har nu upptäckt att det finns skillnader i genernas aktivitet hos tvillingar med och utan typ 2-diabetes. Forskarnas upptäckt kan bidra till utvecklingen av nya behandlingsmetoder. – Enäggstvillin
