Biological Changes Persist Across Generations Without DNA Changes

Original: Biological changes can persist across many generations without altering DNA

Scientists report that biological changes can be passed down through many generations without any alteration to the DNA sequence itself, pointing to epigenetic mechanisms that carry traits beyond genetic code. The finding adds to ongoing debate about how much of inheritance depends on DNA alone, and what it means for evolution and disease research.

Why now: The finding challenges the standard view that inheritance depends solely on DNA, drawing wide scientific and public interest.
