Did you ever wonder what colors Jurassic mammals were? After 10+ years of study, we have the answer: dull and dark! Read the results of this super fun and collaborative project here science.org/doi/10.1126/scie…

Polyploid fitness isn’t just about growing fast—it’s about outcompeting their progenitors! 🌱
We had neopolyploid duckweed and their progenitor invade each other, revealing how stress & frequency-dependent growth shape WGD success... or failure. #polyploid

A new #metagenomic binning algorithm has appeared: TaxVAMB
Looks like it may outperform SemiBin2 for @PacBio HiFi datasets (human gut). I use the long-read mode of SemiBin2 in the HiFi-MAG-Pipeline and it works great. Time to run some benchmarks!

First of (hopefully) many papers on obligate symbioses between an unicellular eukaryote and its Rickettsia-like symbiont🦠🧪🫧 Turns out the holobiont prefers to eat antisense molecules and not use them to silence their genes: biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/…
