Our research scientist Núria Ros-Rocher won the 1st prize @zeiss-microscopy.bsky.social microscopy contest with this beautiful choano colony www.zeiss.fr/microscopie/... 🥳
C. flexa might not yet be a genetic model, but it is now at least a calendar model, which counts for something. I think.
Why does life explore so few of the forms it could possibly take? Using fractal descriptors, this #scienceadvances paper shows that Earth’s biosphere clusters around simple shapes, reflecting deep evolutionary constraints. @artemyte.bsky.social @manlius.bsky.social www.science.org/doi/pdf/10.1...

Myb1 functions as a switch-like regulator of state transitions in Hortaea werneckii, whereby its expression and degradation are coupled to nutrient conditions, stabilizing unicellular or multicellular growth.
