The ratio of nonsynonymous to synonymous DNA substitutions (dN/dS) encodes information about selection pressures. This study develops a model of dN/dS in recombining bacterial populations, offering insights on how horizontal gene transfer shapes the genome. 🧪 #AcademicSky #evolution plos.io/3Wcy9lT

New preprint from the Gurney Lab, on bioRxiv: The Phage Time Continuum: Genome Organization Constrains Anti-CRISPR Success. www.biorxiv.org/content/10.6... I think this is one of the cooler things I'll ever do. Work lead by @sczerwinski.bsky.social he coined the term Phage Time Continuum. 1/10

you can't be serious. This reads Meta/Facebook/Insta is looking to grant itself the rights to scrape websites across the open web - and train Meta's AI - if a company after Oct 30, 2026 uses Facebook, Instagram, WhatsApp or other Meta services. So every biz. Read that again. Outrageous. 1/5
