Does anyone know of a publicly available STAR index for IWGSC @wheatgenome RefSeq v 2.1 of the wheat genome?
It's been a while in the pipeline! Proud of our latest work in Frontiers in Genetics frontiersin.org/articles/10.… from work with @TREE_UoE @MRCcmm @AFGTweets and @Gray_Thomas1. It's also the first work to come out of my @BBSRC/@EPSRC innovation fellowship!

In principle agree, but we need to be careful! Suspect a better way to do it would be to spread it out over the next few years rather than cancelling all upcoming rounds (keeping 2/3 a year for 3 years might do it and keep research on track)? @UKRI_News @BBSRC

Awesome PhD position available as part of the SWBio DTP looking at systems biology approaches to tackling fungal plant pathogens. Working with researchers from Rothamsted, Bath and Exeter rothamsted.ac.uk/studentship…
A really good read though I like the idea that duplication, pseudogenisation, proto-gene formation and de novo gene birth are a complicated, intertwined process.

How evolution builds genes from scratch

Nature - Scientists long assumed that new genes appear when evolution tinkers with old ones. It turns out that natural selection is much more creative.

Glad to see it’s all gone well! Looking forward to catching up next week.

An unforeseen consequence of the wheatblast outbreak of 2016 in Bangladesh is that many farmers gave up wheat and now grow tobacco, with incentives from companies. So a key food crop replaced by a drug, with all the health hazards of curing tobacco too. Awful #openwheatblast
