1/ How conserved are plant stress responses across 1 billion years of evolution? We built a cross-kingdom stress atlas spanning 36 species, from green algae to angiosperms, across 9 stresses. 13.6M DEG calls from 3,200+ manually curated experiments. 🧵biorxiv.org/content/10.648…

Der Straftatbestand der Politikerbeleidigung gehört abgeschafft. Paragraf 188 sollte Hass bekämpfen und Kommunalpolitiker schützen – wurde aber zum Instrument, mit dem Spitzenpolitiker die Meinungsfreiheit einschränken. Aus der Reihe «Der andere Blick»:

I just published: Leave the red shirt out: Scientists, stop complicating the story Scientists are brilliant at finding details. We are less brilliant at knowing which details to shut up about. medium.com/p/leave-the-re…

Really proud of this work led by Ruben Eichfeld! We show how a CBM domain gain/loss can rewire fungal chitinases, turning them from antifungal enzymes into immune-suppressing effectors that support plant symbiosis. nature.com/articles/s4146…

🌱 Discover camelina at the Paris Agricultural Show (21 Feb – 1 Mar)! @INRAE_Intl our partner will present @UNTWIST_H2020 research and a poster on #camelina as a summer crop, breeding for climate adaptation & consumer choice. Try the interactive card game comparing oils!

We are pleased to announce that CEPLAS has open research positions for both doctoral and postdoctoral researchers. Please help in spreading the word: ceplas.eu/en/training-ca…

Visualizing pairwise genome comparisons? No need to run BLAST separately anymore! 🧬 ​#gbdraw has implemented #LOSAT, a WASM-powered Rust reimplementation of BLASTN/TBLASTX. ​✅ No local installation ✅ No data transfer (Serverless) ​Try it here: gbdraw.app

Finding genes in genomes without pre-training it works for animals (vertebrates and invertebrates)/plants/insects/fungi. It needs a GPU for best performance but works on Apple now as well. github.com/usadellab/Heli…

Our new study shows that the root endophyte Serendipita indica complements host immunity across diverse Arabidopsis thaliana accessions. Even in lines lacking root TNL immune receptors such as ISI. biorxiv.org/content/10.648…

Plz retweet. W3 position Sustainable pest control open!

@Hasindu2008 @nanopore @AMD @bonson_wong nice!

With Slorado, now you have more choices for GPUs when basecalling @nanopore sequencing data. This is a work we collaborated on with @AMD, led by PhD candidate @bonson_wong and great to see being highlighted in the AMD blog: amd.com/en/blogs/2025/…

Tomorrow @LGaccione2974 from @balurens' lab will explain on our @nanopore day at HHU Düsseldorf, how to turn 9.41 data(!) into a high quality pangenome. If you can't make it read all about it here as well: nature.com/articles/s4146…

@hixingz @ProhensJaime @giulianolab1 @solgenetics Do you mean the germplasm? You can get them via SMTAs from the original custodians of the germplasm. All data is freely accesible.

@usadellab @ProhensJaime @giulianolab1 @solgenetics Would it be possible for you to provide any guidance or information regarding their accessibility? Any assistance or direction you could offer would be greatly appreciated. Thank you very much for your time and support.

1/8 How do graph pangenomes and panphenomes help breeding eggplant? doi.org/10.1038/s41467…. This feat would not have been possible without a large team of 24 researchers from 7 countries including @ProhensJaime @giulianolab1 @solgenetics and BarchiLab
