Our poster from #microbio26 describing pyani-plus is available on FigShare: doi.org/10.6084/m9.f... It'll have to do until the preprint's out ;)
The figure examples may be of interest if you're following the Ochrobactrum/Brucella controversies 😈

Come and see us at #microbio26 in Belfast! We’re in the Genetics and Genomics session (part 2) and also at poster A038.
We’ve lots of stickers! Ask us for stickers!
See you at #MicroSoc2026 #MicroSoc26 in Belfast for stickers and microbial genomes and taxonomy chat!
We'll be at the
@microbiologysociety.org
Annual Conference in Belfast this year, with a poster describing the new features in pyani-plus, and a talk about benchmarking genome comparisons. There will also be stickers!
See you there ðŸ¦

Binomial names for virus species: the rediscovery of an old idea. Published #OpenAccess and fee-free in #JGenVirol using a #PublishAndRead agreement:

We have released pyani-plus v1.0.1
github.com/pyani-plus/p...
This release fixes some minor bugs and improves progress reporting for larger (e.g. fungal) genomes.
Getting the advert ready just now, but we'll soon be accepting applications for an IBioIC-funded Collaborative Training Partnership with @hutton.ac.uk
The project is to infer "rules" for composing carbohydrate-active enzyme (CAZyme) arsenals in bacterial plant pathogens. UK funding only.
(just to be clear - this is a PhD studentship opportunity… more details to follow when the advert goes up)
