Reappearance of Missing Genetic Information Poses Exception to the Rule

Code is hiding but not lost

Researchers have discovered that "missing" genetic information unexpectedly reappears in later generations. By poring over the genome of the model plant, Arabidopsis thaliana, scientists at Purdue University found specific genetic information present in a "grandparent" and "grandchild," even though it was seemingly absent in the "parent."
The study is featured in the March 24 issue of the journal Nature.
