Very happy to introduce a new fungus to the world, Endoantria benetecta, which represents not only a new species but a new genus of ascomycetes. It is special as it has only been found in temperate rainforests in Scotland and Wales. It's a super interesting fungus: here's why 1/

Canada can be breathtaking. But even the Canadian Rockies have their limits. ⛰️ With AI, photos and videos can look real, even when they are not. #ThinkBeforeYouShare

Happy to share our latest pre-print on the evolution of TIR-mediated immunity in plants. Led by @E_B_Kennedy and @Khongsam_Chia from our lab @JohnInnesCentre with a big assist from @mhz1989 and @jonathandgjones @TheSainsburyLab. Check out El's twitter thread below:

@E_B_Kennedy @Khongsam_Chia Congratulations!

Extremely excited to share the first pre-print from my PhD project in the Carella lab, co-first authored with @Khongsam_Chia 🎉 biorxiv.org/content/10.648… We investigated the EDS1-dependence of TIR domains from across the spectrum of land plant evolution, and found that TIR-NLR architecture itself can influence TIR domain activity, even for animal and bacterial TIRs. Huge thanks to all co-authors and the #CarellaCapybaras for all the support 😊 Thread below ⬇️

根は綺麗でしたね。 菌根菌も普通に共生してました。 様子見です

おかげさまで、gbdrawのGitHub starsが100個になりました。ありがとうございます

タマゴケについた菌

@tasukete945_JP I think it is cyanobacteria growing epiphytically on the moss.

これって…なんだ？？ コケ菌、、？なのかもわからない

@TaijiShira Bryoscyphus atromarginatus / conocephali relative.

昨日大山でコケ上で見つけましたが、ゼニゴケツブチャワンタケOctospora ithacaensisとは見た目的に違うように見えますがどうでしょうか？？

A single 400-year-old ancient oak produces 234,000 litres of oxygen a year while soaking up carbon dioxide, and can support more than 2,000 species of bird, insect, fungus, and lichen. 📍my favourite oak #lakedistrict

Isn’t Bogbean just glorious! 🤩 Menyanthes trifoliata looking beautiful for #wildflowerhour

Some of the Adder's tongue ferns in my front garden. #wildflowerhour Indicator of old grassland.

My photo vs AI SLOP! You CANT tell the difference anymore! 😤 It is so SUFFOCATING to watch social media be filled with deceptive AI that is drawing attention away from real photographers and REAL stories trying to be told about wildlife! It is so DANGEROUS for conservation! 🕷️

@mottii1965 Usually this genus of fungus weakens the host.

今年もケゼニゴケに発生していました。古くなったものに発生しているのか、発生したから弱るのかどっちかな。 ①2023年②2024年③2025年④2026年

The disrespect for scientists these days is shocking. I made the news for photographing an extremely rare spider in the jungles of PNG and the comments are just full of dismissive people. What has happened to having respect for experts in their field?

タマゴケに寄生菌かな。

@mottii1965 It is probably Eocronartium muscicola, a fungus that grows in place of sporophytes, parasitising transfer cell nutrient stream.

These micrographs are fantastic. A real highlight on here.

@Jamiewa50042387 @BBSbryology Nice, with Mniaecia jungermanniae in the background of pic 1.

A good fertile patch of Diphyscium foliosum (Nut-moss) on North facing Crags on Or Eifl a couple of weeks ago, the distinct sessile Capsules looked great ,always nice to see @BBSbryology
