Our new population genomics study on #Colletotrichum! 🌿🧬 212 global isolates reveal isolation by distance and genetic introgression between lineages, indicating a long history of recombination! biorxiv.org/content/10.110… 🎧 Audio summary: sciencecast.org/casts/vqrc6gmb…

Thrilled to see our work on #genome #evolution & transcriptome plasticity of #Colletotrichum #fungi adapted to different #plants published in @GigaScience! Check it out! doi.org/10.1093/gigasc… @Unibo @distal_unibo @usal @jgi @AITtomorrow2day @UCBerkeley @_Westerdijk_

Congratulations @SiolySioly7 and team! 🥳

Our new #paper is out 🎉 @FrontMicrobiol 🧬 #Genomics #Colletotrichum 📌 Check out our full paper in doi.org/10.3389/fmicb.… Here is a thread for a brief recap ⬇️

@FEMSmicro Hi @FEMSmicro the submission site for the research and training grants has been broken for a few days and the deadline is approaching! What can we do?

5 days left to apply for our Research and Training Grant! This is to support projects that will start within a year from the following 1 March. The max grant is € 5000 We use the income from the #FEMSJournals to fund our #FEMSGrants. fems-microbiology.org/about_fems/net…

Our international collaboration on #Colletotrichum graminicola pop genetic structure is out! Thanks to the Ed./reviewers for making the process a good experience @mbiojournal @FlviaRogrio2 @Crouch_Lab @MalapiWight @AlbertTenuta @tjcksn @PSU_PlantEpidem journals.asm.org/doi/10.1128/mb…

Congrats Dr T. Boufleur @boufleur_t on your award for best PhD thesis at #USP in soybean anthracnose. We’re very proud of you! Thanks for a wonderful collaboration with Univ Sao Paulo, Bolonia @R_Baroncelli and Salamanca @CIALE_USAL @mthon @UCCiUSAL @investigausal #colletotrichum

Just joined mastodon on the genomic.social server….

Please consider joining @ElenaBaraldi6, @R_Baroncelli and myself for a full day of Colletotrichum talks and networking at the Colletotrichum satellite workshop in connection with #ecfg16

👩‍🔬🧑‍🔬Los doctores Virginia Casado del Castillo y Francisco Borja Cuevas Fernández, del grupo de Genética del CIALE, presentaron sus charlas en el XX Congreso de la Sociedad Española de Fitopatología @SEFitopatologia celebrado en Valencia #vlcsef2022 representando a la @usal

👏🏻 Segundo día de Congreso #vlcsef2022 Mañana seguimos con nuestros pósteres en el edificio Nexus, 2da planta ➡️ Sección interacción Planta-Patógeno #colletotrichum #genome #population #effector

Curiosity: How many times can one cry while writing the first paper?

Our new work is out!! Genome evolution and transcriptome plasticity associated with adaptation to monocot and eudicot plants in #Colletotrichum fungi! biorxiv.org/content/10.110… @JCobodiaz @GLeFloch29 @ssukno @mthon @jgi

@SiolySioly7 Awesome! I had the advantage of being in a lab next to an ice cream shop that was open at all hours.👍

Second round of inoculations this week 🔬#Colletotrichum • Here we go 💪🏻 #usal #ScienceTwitter #fungal #anthracnose #teamColletotrichum #Maize #phd #AcademicTwitter

@ScienceIsMetal For those about to rock.

If a song played before every time you presented on your data, which song would you pick and why?

🧪🔬¡Hoy ha tocado Campamento Científico! Nuestros investigadores del Grupo de Genética han preparado unos talleres chulísimos y los niños se han divertido mucho con los experimentos!🫧🧫 @UCCiUSAL @AgriEnvironCyL

@SiolySioly7 You are missing the iPad!

My screens now look like this. One paper is coming 🧬💻 #ScienceTwitter #WomenInScience #paper #HomeOfficeSetup #Science #Bioinformatics

Can someone explain to a new PI why aluminum foil is $100 from Fisher and why I can't just go buy it at Target/Grocery store, etc?

@namraf64 @ssukno @FlviaRogrio2 @R_Baroncelli @Crouch_Lab @GMunkvold @MalapiWight @SiolySioly7 @AlbertTenuta @tjcksn @PSU_PlantEpidem Exactly!

@ssukno @mthon @FlviaRogrio2 @R_Baroncelli @Crouch_Lab @GMunkvold @MalapiWight @SiolySioly7 @AlbertTenuta @tjcksn @PSU_PlantEpidem This tree alone tells you that the populations are primarily structured by recombination. It’s not consistent with a model of clonal propagation

This was a long time in development with collaborators from around the world and a multidisciplinary effort @FlviaRogrio2 @R_Baroncelli @Crouch_Lab @GMunkvold @MalapiWight @SiolySioly7 @AlbertTenuta @tjcksn @PSU_PlantEpidem @mthon #Colletotrichum biorxiv.org/content/10.110…
