Happy to see the preprint find a home @elife! 🥳 https://t.co/0mr2UEGgwt Thank you to my coauthors @asimjaved777 @JiaxuWu6 , especially @edelplopez , for the continuous support and encouragement. Followup results from thia study coming soon!
New Preprint 🚨 Using AF2, we predicted the 3D structures of the gall-forming plasmodiophorid, oomycete and fungi secretome to investigate - 1. common and unique folds associated with a lifestyle, 2. SUSS effector families https://t.co/7HPBHoF4nJ

Congrats to Broad Clinical Labs, Roche and Boston Children's Hospital for making a Guinness record for fastest genome sequencing! They were able to sequence and analyse the whole genome in <4 hrs, surpassing the previous benchmark of 5 hrs and 2 mins. A NEJM paper reports

Modern agriculture is a miracle that we take for granted
Over the last 60 years, the world population has more than doubled. This has inevitably reduced the land available per person to live and grow food. How have we managed to feed a rapidly growing population with ever-shrinking land resources? Let's look at this for cereals,

Patrol (left) versus defense (right) behavior by the black carpenter ant tending Disholcaspis galls on the southern live oak in Louisiana. The gall emits a sugary substance that attracts the ants, who then defend the baby wasp inside! #mutualism #biodiversity

Today's going exceptionally well! 😅 Our paper describing the screening of Arabidopsis natural accessions against a Canadian clubroot pathotype is out now.
What are the odds? 🤯 A second paper out today—this time in @PlantDiseaseJ revealing a new source of clubroot resistance in Arabidopsis! 🌱🛡️ Congratulations Melaine González García (@mel25448778) 🎉! Another super cool story also part of her PhD will come out later this year!

Glad to see this out @TrendsGenetics! We discussed the confusion around the growing list of clubroot resistance genes and what truly qualifies as the novel ones. The clubroot community needs a consistent nomenclature to keep track of the real progress. https://t.co/lm5t646i54
