Ants that farm fungus to eat must weed out pathogenic fungi that contaminate their food supply. A study shows that a class of metabolites called peptaibols produced by the unwanted fungus Trichoderma induces an ant-weeding response. In PNAS: ow.ly/5Sa450OUOAm

Observation made while writing letters of recommendation to various universities: if your department should have used an Oxford comma in its name but did not, I have noticed.

My sick kids scuttled our turkey with friends plan (they are almost healthy now after 1 week) but I'm thankful at least for a day off that I can use to putter on home projects. May you find some rest, whatever form it takes.
