Junk DNA Is Useless, Says Carnivorous Plant

We've been told time and time again how vital our DNA is, yet new evidence may just showcase how insignificant a vast majority of it is, thanks to one carnivorous plant.

Scientists Find a Possible New Link in the Evolution of Tetrapods in the Ancient Coelacanth

Though extinct members of lung fish are more analogous to tetrapods than are coelacanth, based off of yesterday’s genome analysis, the latter fish is a key informant regarding the evolution of marine-animals to land breeding animals. Obviously, anatomical analysis, such as the similarities in joints an bones that can be detected in both lobed fins and tetrapod limbs, can only reveal so much information. For this reason, the decoding of African coelacanth’s genome is a feat.
