4Biology is a focused search engine built for biology students, researchers, educators, and lab managers. We combine multiple indexes, curated sources, and AI tools to surface publications, protocols, datasets, suppliers, and learning resources that matter to life scientists. Use the site to save time, find specialized resources, and get context-specific search results not optimized for general web traffic. Part of the 4SEARCH network of topic specific search engines.
Whole-genome resequencing of 197 gardenia accessions from nine Chinese populations reveals millions of genomic variants, clear geographic structure, and selection signals in pathways tied to the plant's medicinal and ornamental value.
A new ensemble species distribution model using 121 verified records reveals that the Brazilian free-tailed bat's South American subspecies avoids the Amazon, favors human settlements, and is fragmented by Andean barriers.
Genetic and morphological analyses of freshwater snails from Lake Biwa have led to the redescription of Semisulcospira reticulata and the description of a new species, Semisulcospira nishimurai, from sandy mud habitats.
Molecular and morphological evidence reveals two new flightless lace bug species from Hachijo Island and the Kerama Group, bringing Japan's Agramma fauna to four species.
A newly described coprophilous fungus from Kenyan cow dung, Schizothecium keniense, produces the novel alkaloid pyrrospirone Z and other decahydrofluorene metabolites with notable antibacterial and cytotoxic activity.
A new BMC Biology study shows that chromosomal inversions in Anopheles mosquitoes reshape 3D genome folding and rewire enhancers near key anti-parasite immune genes.
A systematic reusability study of the CORNETO framework reveals that multi-sample biological network inference operates in distinct robustness regimes governed by prior knowledge completeness, sample availability, and biological variability. Article Title: Reusability report: multi-sample omics network inference operates in distinct…
Researchers documented the first known case of a land planarian preying on a web-building spider in the Brazilian Atlantic Forest, revealing that sticky three-dimensional webs offer no defense against these mucus-secreting flatworms.
Deep in the forests of Africa and Madagascar lives a group of beetles so strange that early entomologists debated whether they even belonged among bark beetles at all.
An intensive 2022 field survey of Lipari and Panarea documented 386 plant taxa, including an evening primrose new to Italy and several garden escapees flagged as invasion risks. Subject of Research: Floristic inventory of the volcanic islands Lipari and Panarea in the…
