Scientists successfully thawed and revived a rotifer, a multicellular organism frozen for 24,000 years, which astonishingly began reproducing again.
A new study shows that humans and tiny aquatic animals known as rotifers have something important in common when it comes to sex. Barely visible without a microscope, rotifers eat algae and serve ...
How a group of animals can abandon sex, yet produce more than 460 species over evolutionary time, became a little less mysterious this week with the publication of the complete genome of a bdelloid ...

If sex is so great, how has the bdelloid rotifer been able to do without it for 30 million years? That's a puzzle scientists at Cornell University think they have an answer to. But what is a bdelloid ...
Astonishingly, scientists in Siberia revived microscopic rotifers from permafrost, dormant for nearly 24,000 years. These resilient creatures, found in ancient ice, not only survived but reproduced, ...
Scientists have revived multicellular organisms from permafrost and subseafloor environments after tens of thousands to millions of years, including a 24,000-year-old rotifer, a 46,000-year-old worm, ...
