Want to assemble plant genomes? Try out TRITEX! With long reads, Hi-C reads and a guide map (or a reference genome) you can get chromosome-level assemblies for your favorite plant! Check out the tutorial: tritexassembly.bitbucket.io And the paper: plantmethods.biomedcentral.com/articles/10.11…

Check out our review!

You hold a PhD in biophysics or related field? You have good programming skills? And you have a good knowledge of protein structure and function? Then we at @LeibnizIPK have a job offer! ➡️Read more: tinyurl.com/y3bxwhxs

My PhD supervisor told me “if you don’t have so many good ideas that you can’t let a few go to other folks, you’re probably in the wrong business”. That has always stuck with me. I think the measure of a researcher is what they do with the ideas they don’t have time to pursue.

MDPI journals have been included in the list of predatory journals. It was about time. predatoryreports.org/news/f/list-of…

So much of bioinformatics is endless writing of parsers for file formats written by software, and it just shouldn't be this way. This is needlessly time-intensive, bug-prone, and prevents higher-level abstractions from being developed. We need tidy bioinformatics.

I’m sorry to be the bearer of bad news but R is superior to Python for statistical analysis. It’s not even close.

The good thing about having to present many seminars is that now I have all my slides basically READY for my defense. Thanks Marina (and supervisors) from the past ✨

Final paper from my PhD is finally out! We explored the diversity and the nutrient turnover potential of plant-associated communities from a biodiversity hotspot in Brazil. @jgi @GCCRC_ nature.com/articles/s4139…

TRITEX pipeline developed by Martin Mascher @LeibnizIPK set the stage for #genome and #pangenome projects in cereals including #barley, #wheat, #oat and #rye. An updated technical guide to TRITEX for more plant genome assemblies. congrats @MaroneMarina plantmethods.biomedcentral.com/articles/10.11…

Happy to share our new chapter on the potential of producing biofuel from Energy cane and Agave. Energy cane is a more resistant and productive hybrid than sugarcane. Agave is highly productive and grows well in semi-arid regions. It's out: link.springer.com/chapter/10.100…

About to submit your paper? Did you know that the References are the part of a paper most often overlooked? 😳 It's not only damaging science but also making desk-rejection more likely. Here's a 9-point references checklist for you to keep. 🔖 1/n #AcademicChatter

@kamran7551 Thanks, Muhammad!

@MaroneMarina Great work

Had a great time presenting TRITEX today at Genome Informatics! By the way, if you’re interested in knowing more about this pipeline for assembling plant genomes, check the tutorial available at tritexassembly.bitbucket.io or the preprint at researchsquare.com/article/rs-205… #GI2022

Never promote overwork. It's not a sign of passion or dedication, it's misguided & deeply unhealthy.
