@mattbnt.bsky.socialThrilled to share that our paper is finally out in Science Advances! 🔗 www.science.org/doi/10.1126/... TL;DR: A Drosophila protamine acts as shields resolving conflict between X and Y chromosomes. Disruption unleashes meiotic drive that kills X-bearing sperm and skews progeny sex ratios. 🪰🧬ᯡ
Show Postwww.nature.com/articles/d41... Progress is slow but finally CRISPR edited crops are coming to Europe. Still, as this article explains, the rules include arbitrary and artificial constraint on which gene edits are “acceptable”.
Show Post🧵🌿 Did you know that tRNA gene organization in plants is shaped by strong evolutionary constraints? Uncover how cis-regulatory elements and chromosomal distribution work together to maintain optimal tRNA dosage in @theplantjournal.bsky.social . 🌍🔍 🔗https://urlr.me/sQMAyx
Show PostPlants have fascinating genomes, complex with many multiplicated genes. It is one of the reasons they can produce many complex compounds. So, when I heard that they have those so-called extracellular circular DNA I was hooked. Here is the story why. open.substack.com/pub/plantenz... #PlantScience
Show PostVery happy to have @mattbnt.bsky.social from @lipme-toulouse.bsky.social here at INRAe Orleans for the EPiMYC day ! Amazing talk on the role of lncRNAs during AMS & RNS 🤩 congrats @ibrahimkeita.bsky.social & @melissa-simonnet.bsky.social for this very nice work👏🏼
