Over 150 years ago, a fossilized organism known as Prototaxites emerged as an enigma regarding what early land life may have been like. As an organism that appeared to grow up through Earth’s crust in ...
A signal-processing–based framework converts DNA sequences into numerical signals to identify protein-coding regions. By integrating spectral analysis and SVM classification, the approach improves ...
Researchers studying exquisitely preserved Scottish fossils say Prototaxites represents an entirely extinct eukaryotic lineage - a “new form of life” in the sense that it does not fit into known major ...

A towering 26-foot-tall fossil, first discovered in Scotland, has been confirmed by scientists as a completely new form of life. Neither plant nor fungus, the extinct organism, called Prototaxites, ...
Researchers at University of Tsukuba have identified a photophobic response (light avoidance) in the unicellular apusomonad ...
It's Saturday! This week, in an eminently practical analysis of the Boltzmann brain conjecture, physicists put constraints on the idea that memories could arise from random fluctuations in entropy ...
