Fungal threats like Discula destructiva are a growing concern for forests and ornamental crops. Our latest study investigates how this dogwood anthracnose pathogen breaks down plant defenses using powerful enzymes. #epptn @UTAgResearch Learn More: pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/4029…

EPP researchers studied Diphasiastrum digitatum, commonly known as fan clubmoss or Southern ground cedar, across the Eastern U.S. to explore its genetic diversity and evolutionary history. Learn more about their findings: doi.org/10.1002/ece3.71079. #epptn

Simplified view of metabolism. Proteoforms & metabolites are abstracted. Many of the parameters are unknown. Regulatory links are missing.

"Academic" is just a fancy job title for Elsevier's content creators.

Fifteen years minus one day between these photos. Taken at the Rhone glacier in Switzerland today. Not gonna lie, it made me cry.

And with this last RUBY expression experiment, I can confidently say that pCambia2300-RUBYGREEN is ready for use!!! I just listed the plasmid in my webstore for the low price of $20. Making fresh stabs as we speak. Go support my lab and buy one today! atinygreencell.com/products/…

It's interesting to read critiques of papers in 'high-profile' journals that end up with SO MUCH data that could probably be at least four papers. Yet few people comment on the fact that the paper was in review for two years (cue jokes about that's how long it took to read it) 1/

BREAKING:  scientists reveal global warming has been underestimated with Earth already having warmed by more than 1.5°C since the late 19th century confirming we're in the process of passing multiple climate tipping points as warming accelerates to a rate of 0.25-0.5°C/decade 🧵

For anyone who wants faster PCRs with normal (or portable) PCR equipment and standard polymerases, here are four great studies on this topic that have tried to push “standard” PCR as fast as they could make it can go: 🧵 👇 1/5
