Very excited to see the final version of our kingdom-scale fungal genome defense manuscript out in @plosbiology.org !

This work has been a major project of @tbadet.bsky.social during his time in our lab.

We hope to stimulate much more exciting work on fungal TEs.

Fungal #GenomeSize variation is largely driven by TEs & lineage-specific genome defenses. @tbadet.bsky.social & @danielcroll.bsky.social show that presence/absence of RIP mutation systems influences #genome architecture, identifying a likely novel defense mechanism @plosbiology.org 🧪 plos.io/4hcC5tx

Widespread shifts in genome architecture and trophism across fungi. Phylogenetic positions of the shifts identified for genome size. Negative values denote an identified decrease in the genomic trait value while positive values denote an increase in the genomic trait value.

Bracket fungus #fungi

Photograph of a bracket fungus growing out of a fallen log. Discoid shape with strong markings, purplish black in the centre, golden brown of two shades and finally white on the edge. Beads of liquid on the edges caused by guttation

Although they seem to be going to sleep, temperate trees are very busy right now. Fine roots are growing, and inside the buds, next years leaves, stems, and flowers are being formed. That means that autumn weather determines some or all of next year's growth. Read about it at Our Trees.

It is autumn, when the trees go to sleep. Right? Not quite. This time of year is a very busy one in the life of a temperate tree. Yes, they are preparing for the dormant season by carefully moving nu...

I love a bit of Lenzites betulinus - Birch Mazegill. Easily misidentified from the top, but one look underneath reveals their stunning gill-like pore structure. #FungiFriends

Why rewilders shouldn’t forget about fungi

These mostly hidden life forms have a big role to play in rewilding – and need its support, too.
