Researchers used high-speed cameras to film male guppies as they jumped. When a guppy jumped out of a laboratory tank and nearly landed in her cup of tea, Daphne Soares couldn’t resist putting her ...
Pet guppies often jump out of their tanks. One such accident inspired a new study which reveals how guppies are able to jump so far, and suggests why they do it. If you've owned a pet guppy, you know ...
A new study demonstrates a female preference for rare males using an experiment in a wild population, rather than a laboratory setting. When it comes to choosing a mate, female guppies don't care ...

A new study of wild guppies could unsettle a decades-old idea about the role of danger in the evolution of aging. Biologists in the 1950s predicted that in a treacherous habitat, creatures would ...
Genomic DNA was extracted from caudal finclips using the HotShot method (Truett et al, 2000). We screened four guppies of the Green strain, five guppies of Red strain, five guppies of the Blue strain, ...
