Did you know that DNA must form overlapping loops to give rise to the well-known X-shape of chromosomes? New research from EMBL's Ellenberg group provides new insights into the process of chromosome formation. embl.org/news/science-t…

📢 Excited to share our work out now in nature! 📢 We present the phased pan-genome of the European tetraploid potato, based on 10 historical cultivars representing 85% of European potato diversity. Learn more below! 🔗 nature.com/articles/s4158… 1/7

I want to share our latest work on a forward simulation framework on transposable element evolution. The TE Evolution Simulation Suite, or TESS, contains three components that can simulate many scenarios of genome evolution under the impact of TEs.

1/7 I am very excited to announce our🌹NEW PAPER OUT IN NATURE!🌹 Bimodal centromeres in pentaploid dogroses shed light on their unique meiosis With the Ritz and Kovařík labs we shed light on Rosa canina’s bizarre reproduction! nature.com/articles/s4158… #Meiosis4eva #Centromere

🎉Paper Alert!!!🌹 I am thrilled to share our new paper on dog rose meiosis just published in Nature! 📄 nature.com/articles/s4158… A big thank you to my PhD supervisor André Marques and all co-authors — couldn't have done it without you!🙏

Genetic evidence to prove the functional importance of RNA structure and m6A. I am very happy to be part of the team! John Innes Centre YY zhang😃

I am super happy to see our dog rose's paper featuring the cover of the July 3rd issue of nature read more here: tinyurl.com/dog-rose

The newly discovered microbe provisionally known as Sukunaarchaeum isn’t a virus. But like viruses, it seemingly has one purpose: to make more of itself. Learn more: scim.ag/4eGtttN News from Science

🚨 Hot off the press!!! Wanted to share this to celebrate the momentous achievement from the Giunta Lab and for the human centromere / genomics communities as a whole... more posts to come next week but for now, happy Fourth & happy reading ❤️🧬💻 science.org/doi/10.1126/sc…

🚨Our latest work on selfish centromeres published at Current Biology 🐭🧬We found that the spindle checkpoint contributes to non-Mendelian segregation! Huge congrats to my lab manager, Zaak Walton, who led the project🎉 Free link authors.elsevier.com/a/1lQzN3QW8SA3…

Happy to share our new work on the exciting genomes of carnivorous sundews! Exciting findings, incl. different centromere organisations and all kinds of weird polyploids giving rise to these mysterious plants! Great word led by my postdoc Laura Ávila Robledil in collab with Victor A. Albert

Authors in this paper used 193 Darwin Tree of Life project reference genomes to study centromere architecture. What is a #centromere? It's the region of a chromosome where the microtubules attach during cell division - key equipment! Read more ⤵️ researchsquare.com/article/rs-700…
