A bizarre and ugly fish that has been around for hundreds of millions of years has been discovered to have the most DNA of any animal ever found. These South American lungfish (Lepidosiren paradoxa) ...
The longest genome of all the animals on Earth belongs not to a giant, or a cognitively advanced critter, but a writhing, water-dwelling creature seemingly frozen in time, right at the cusp of ...
Scientists have sequenced the largest genome of all animals, the lungfish genome. Their data help to explain how the fish-ancestors of today's land vertebrates were able to conquer land. Thirty times ...
