Business end of a low cost DIY gene gun - powered by a sodastream CO2 canister with minipump-driven vacuum shroud. Microparticle load is contained in a 13mm filter holder on a stainless steel mesh - like John Finer's particle inflow design. Looking at efficiency improvements...
Background Sex chromosomes evolve from autosomes and are expected to be initially homomorphic, though they may become heteromorphic over time. In diploid systems, one sex chromosome often degenerates,...
For liverwort mavens, I've needed to shift our Marchantia resources to a new website (I've reached retirement from academia in Cambridge) - and the plant synthetic biology stuff has moved to https://www.haseloff-lab.info
(Now have more time for DIY builds! Updates to come)
New review out: The Promise of Synthetic Biology for Redesigning Plant Architecture
Great to have worked on this with @suruchiroy.bsky.social and Gerad dos Santos!

Cool new T-DNA plasmid! Let's see how it gets adopted and common tools become available -- hope those will happen to some level at least

PCA Members are excited to share our new paper, which outlines a roadmap for tracing the origins & diversification of cell types across green plants using single-cell technologies.
From algae to angiosperms, we're entering a new era of comparative cell biology.
