Nature does open access

I created a Google Form to crowd-source representative long-read datasets for tool development purposes. Please suggest how to improve the form. Note that the form is not final and might be changed in future. docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAI…

Ce 22 janvier, des images insoutenables et de bribes d’information sur les réseaux sociaux laissent croire que le pire serait arrivé à l’animateur radio Martinez ZOGO, enlevé depuis plusieurs jours par des hommes non identifiés.1/2

Enjoyed a visit at Universität München including a guided tour through some of the Botanischer Garten München-Nymphenburg greenhouses which harbor amazing plants. Inspiring discussions about plant genomics and evolution. Many thanks to Christian Siadjeu and the Kadereit group for hosting me.

Very happy to spread the word about Portulacas to Universität München on the kind invitation of Christian Siadjeu and Prof Gudrun Kadereit. It was lovely to meet you and the group! I really enjoyed our discussion 🌱 looking forward to other opportunities to see this amazing Bot Garden😍

#BMC Genomics has launched a collection on Medicinal plant genomics! #Genomics, #plants,#ResearchPapers, biomedcentral.com/collections/MPG

Not able to produce “favorable results” in the lab? You are a “loser”. Stay in the shadows of those who can bring cool data to the Big Prof. Sounds familiar? It's not only about this case at Stanford. It's about academic culture in general: - Keep pushing for metrics.

Excited to collaborate with Christian Siadjeu again. This time we are organizing a Collection 'Medicinal Plant Genomics' in BMC Genomics (BMC). Consider submitting your work! doi.org/10.1186/s12864… 🌱🧬 #Genomics #DrugDiscovery

C4-like Sesuvium sesuvioides (Aizoaceae) exhibits CAM in cotyledons and putative C4+CAM metabolism in adult leaves as revealed by transcriptome analysis biorxiv.org/cgi/content/sh… #bioRxiv

The co-occurence of C4 + CAM photosynthesis seems to be more common than we thought! Check out our latest preprint biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Are you working on a genome sequencing project? We are looking for papers about medicinal plants. Please RT & check if your work might fit into our Collection: doi.org/10.1186/s12864… Christian Siadjeu BMC #Genomics #Bioinformatics #Sequencing #OpenAccess #AcademicChatter

I am happy to share with you our recent paper on photosynthetic plasticity in Sesuvium bmcgenomics.biomedcentral.com/articles/10.11… BMC Universität München Plant Biology #GoGreen #SustainableAgriculture

I finally got around to testing HERRO (github.com/lbcb-sci/herro), the new Oxford Nanopore read correction algorithm which takes simplex ONT reads to PacBio-HiFi-level accuracy. I was impressed! Findings are on my blog in a two-part post: rrwick.github.io/2024/07/26/her… rrwick.github.io/2024/07/31/her…

Published in 2009, bwa-aln is one of the oldest short-read aligners. It remains a popular choice for aligning ancient DNA reads. The following blog post explains the algorithmic reasons. lh3.github.io/2024/09/28/why…
