For our last strategic tip this 𝙂𝙚𝙣𝙚𝙩𝙞𝙘𝙨 𝙒𝙚𝙚𝙠 2025 we’re going to talk about one of the biggest scientific mysteries 👤🔮- 𝚝𝚑𝚎 𝚘𝚛𝚒𝚐𝚒𝚗 𝚘𝚏 𝚟𝚒𝚛𝚞𝚜𝚎𝚜 ! 🦠

Viruses are barely considered to be a living organism because they may contain the genetic material to evolve, but the absence of cellular structures and metabolic processes makes them their unique marks that challenge the scientific community of what it means to be “living”.

So what do you think? Are viruses alive or not? 🤔💭 Check out this infographic below to decode its mystery! 👇🧬

In the game of survival, bacteria don’t play fair. They are making 𝐠𝐚𝐦𝐞-𝐜𝐡𝐚𝐧𝐠𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐦𝐨𝐯𝐞𝐬 like trading genes, mutating, and even compensate for fitness costs, 𝙖𝙡𝙡 𝙩𝙤 𝙨𝙩𝙖𝙮 𝙞𝙣 𝙩𝙝𝙚 𝙜𝙖𝙢𝙚. 🎯 One of those mind-blowing strategies is 𝐀𝐧𝐭𝐢𝐛𝐢𝐨𝐭𝐢𝐜 𝐑𝐞𝐬𝐢𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐧𝐜𝐞!

Antibiotic resistance genes are present in most pathogenic bacteria’s plasmids. These genes can be transferred through horizontal gene transfer with modes including conjugation, transformation, and transduction; or through vertical gene transfer. However, these genes also have a pleiotropic effect where its mutation affects seemingly unrelated traits, consequently affecting their fitness. 💪🏼

Last November 17, 2025, 𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐔𝐏𝐋𝐁 𝐆𝐞𝐧𝐞𝐭𝐢𝐜𝐬 𝐒𝐨𝐜𝐢𝐞𝐭𝐲 welcomed students and faculty to the opening of Genetics Week 2025 Exhibit titled, “𝗖𝗵𝗿𝗼𝗻𝗼𝗚𝗘𝗡𝗘𝘀𝗶𝘀: 𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗦𝘁𝗼𝗿𝘆 𝗼𝗳 𝗟𝗶𝗳𝗲’𝘀 𝗕𝗲𝗴𝗶𝗻𝗻𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗕𝗲𝗰𝗼𝗺𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘁𝗵𝗿𝗼𝘂𝗴𝗵 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗟𝗮𝗻𝗴𝘂𝗮𝗴𝗲 𝗼𝗳 𝗚𝗲𝗻𝗲𝘀,” at the 𝗪𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗔 𝗼𝗳 𝗜𝗪𝗘𝗣. The exhibit runs from November 17-21 this year.

​​This event is a collaborative effort of all the resident members, led by the Projects Committee and Education Committee. The design is primarily inspired by board games, where, just like in evolution, everyone starts at one origin, but takes on different paths as the game progresses. It highlights the role of genetics and how in the game of life, both fitness and chance drive survival. ♟️🎰

Aside from its colorful, fun, and game-inspired design, the exhibit features educational posters about evolutionary genetics prepared by resident members; posters and flyers from Volunteer Youth Leaders for Health (VYLH) about the importance of folic acid awareness, newborn screening, rare disease awareness, and preconception health; and the newest issue of GENEWS, the official publication of GeneSoc. Moreover, it features information about our organization, members, and our various activities throughout the years. Ultimately, it aims to promote the appreciation of the science of Genetics in the university.

𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐔𝐏𝐋𝐁 𝐆𝐞𝐧𝐞𝐭𝐢𝐜𝐬 𝐒𝐨𝐜𝐢𝐞𝐭𝐲 would like to express its gratitude to all who dedicated their time to read and engage with our exhibit. The impact of this initiative is what makes our efforts truly meaningful.

Lactase is the enzyme that helps us digest lactose, and while most mammals lose it after childhood, humans continue producing it. This trait is called 𝐥𝐚𝐜𝐭𝐚𝐬𝐞 𝐩𝐞𝐫𝐬𝐢𝐬𝐭𝐞𝐧𝐜𝐞, a well-known example of 𝒈𝒆𝒏𝒆-𝒄𝒖𝒍𝒕𝒖𝒓𝒆 𝒄𝒐𝒆𝒗𝒐𝒍𝒖𝒕𝒊𝒐𝒏. It shapes global nutrition and digestive health today and serves as a powerful example of how our genes adapt to cultural change. 🥛✨

For our 3rd day, let’s delve into the world of Molecular Signatures of Evolution in the 16S rRNA Gene. 😯🧬

The 16S rRNA gene has a longstanding influence in the development of genetic markers due to their presence in almost all bacteria which makes them a key marker for identification and evolution of the bacterial genome.
It’s remarkable how studying 16S rRNA gene reveals its importance in novel bacterial identification, 🦠aiding us in making informed decisions on antibiotic selection, treatment duration, and infection control. 💊💉

Last November 14, The UPLB Genetics Society, in collaboration with 𝗗𝗿. 𝗔𝗻𝗱𝗿𝗲𝘄 𝗠𝗼𝗻𝘁𝗲𝗰𝗶𝗹𝗹𝗼 of the Institute of Biological Sciences (IBS) conducted this semester's 𝘽𝙞𝙤𝙞𝙣𝙛𝙤𝙧𝙢𝙖𝙩𝙞𝙘𝙨 𝘽𝙤𝙤𝙩𝙘𝙖𝙢𝙥: 𝘼 𝙃𝙖𝙣𝙙𝙨-𝙊𝙣 𝙒𝙤𝙧𝙠𝙨𝙝𝙤𝙥 𝙖𝙣𝙙 𝙏𝙪𝙩𝙤𝙧𝙞𝙖𝙡 𝙤𝙣 𝙩𝙝𝙚 𝘽𝙖𝙨𝙞𝙘𝙨 𝙤𝙛 𝘽𝙞𝙤𝙞𝙣𝙛𝙤𝙧𝙢𝙖𝙩𝙞𝙘𝙨. In this third installation of our bioinformatics workshop, 47 students leveled up in the fascinating game of biological data analysis as Dr. Montecillo provided a comprehensive discussion on the basics of bioinformatics, utilization of 16s rRNA sequencing, and hands-on guidance on programs like UGENE and MEGA.

We would like to extend our gratitude to all participants who showed enthusiasm during the workshop. We hope that it served as a strong foundation of your knowledge as you further explore the potential of bioinformatics. We would also like to extend our thanks to MCB 130 professors, Sir Renard Jamora and our alumnus Sir Walter Laviña, for providing extra guidance to our attendees. Lastly, we give our biggest thanks to Dr. Montecillo, our own GeneSoc alumnus, for providing his valuable expertise in leading the workshop.

As an opening, let's roll on to the topic of 𝑖𝑛𝑡𝑟𝑜𝑔𝑟𝑒𝑠𝑠𝑖𝑜𝑛 👀, also known as 𝘪𝘯𝘵𝘳𝘰𝘨𝘳𝘦𝘴𝘴𝘪𝘷𝘦 𝘩𝘺𝘣𝘳𝘪𝘥𝘪𝘻𝘢𝘵𝘪𝘰𝘯. This genetic phenomenon is commonly studied to gain understanding of the 𝘴𝘤𝘪𝘦𝘯𝘤𝘦 𝘰𝘧 𝘦𝘷𝘰𝘭𝘶𝘵𝘪𝘰𝘯. 👣

Introgression is the gradual incorporation of a species' genes into the gene pool of another, involving recurrent hybridization and backcrossing. This occasion can drive genetic diversification mechanisms and may lead to the formation of distinct species or bring about a risk of extinction.
