Show PostA video of Filoreta ramosa, a fascinating protist that can form multinucleate networks, for #MicroscopyMonday. Imaged by Erandi Sachinthanie, Andrew Kennard, Amaranta Kahn, Jason Bear, Annie Rowe, and John Spear (@spearmicrobe.bsky.social) from the 2026 Microbial Diversity course.
Show PostI'm in the UK with @NickDesnoyer studying flower design. This is my favorite creation of his. Left: Normal Arabidopsis with small white flowers. Right: The same species of Arabidopsis, but designed to form spectacular micro-Roses. (Just a few mutations + one gene inserted.)
