1/📢News from TE diary - Somatic transposition in Arabidopsis is more explosive than we imagined!.Thrilled to share our latest findings - TEs make new somatic insertions en masse, reshaping somatic genome🧬with surprising frequency.@abousios @genomeorglab.

Our new preprint on somatic TE transposition in A. thaliana is out! It looks like TEs jump like crazy! Led by the amazing @ambreen_heena and with @genomeorglab

Background The movement of transposable elements (TEs) in somatic cells generates genetic and phenotypic diversity across the soma of individual organisms. This process is especially important in...

Beautiful collaboration led by Tetsuji Kakutani and Sayuri Tsukahara on unravelling the fine changes that can make a centrophobic TE become centrophilic and vice versa! The devil is in the details for these TEs.

so, I have now also moved to Bluesky, @abousios.bsky.social. The thing I miss the most is the constant flow of information on papers, interesting findings, discussions etc., which has nearly disappeared on Twitter. I will live a double life for now, and see how it goes!.
