New preprint out 🌱
We present a new T-DNA vector system for Arabidopsis that supports clean, genomically mapped, single-copy T-DNA insertion with predictable cell-type/conditional gene expression.

Happy to be part of the special issue of @currentbiology.bsky.social on #plant #evolution with @jandevries.bsky.social @caeciliafkunz.bsky.social @heche.bsky.social!
Check out our review on the evolution of Archaeplastida:
#rustbio 4.0 has been released. It harmonizes the error handling, improves the API, makes gap-open/extend behavior in pairwise alignment more intuitive and in-line with the literature, improves GFF parsing, and allows incremental building of the rank-select datastructure. github.com/rust-bio/rus...

Agrobacterium-mediated transformation is the dominant method for plant transgenesis, yet it frequently produces multi-copy, structurally complex T-DNA insertions associated with transgene silencing, u...
Cool new work on potential mechanisms for the light-capturing efficiency of #kelp: “Whereas photosystems are structurally & functionally conserved, their antenna systems & chromophores are highly diverse, tuned to absorb light in different environments.”

For years, debates about microbial biogeography have sometimes been framed as a choice.
Either microorganisms are everywhere.
Or geography matters.
But what if that is a false choice? @ibe-barcelona.bsky.social @icreacommunity.bsky.social @prbb.org @csic.es

We have just published a detailed, simple, and effective protocol for the electroporation of the microalga Chlamydomonas. Check it out!

Kelp are major players in CO2 removal by photosynthesis. Here, the authors obtained the structure of a key kelp photosynthetic complex with its light-harvesting antenna. Comparisons with other photosy...
A microscopic light-harvesting antenna in giant kelp has been mapped for the first time. Its architecture may help explain how kelp captures light so efficiently in coastal waters. doi.org/hb69h5
Our latest issue just dropped! It's green & special!
And super meaty, even though it is about #plants #evolution!
