In a Consensus Statement in Nature Microbiology, a consortium of #microbiome scientists discusses current sequencing data sharing policies and proposes the use of a Data Reuse Information tag to promote equitable and collaborative data sharing. go.nature.com/4o1Gl1f 🧪

Glad to be part of the Data Reuse Consortium behind this @natmicrobiol.nature.com paper.

Soon, ENA/NCBI submissions will include a Data Reuse Identifier (DRI) — like a DOI for papers.

If you use microbiome sequencing data 🦠🧫🔬🧑‍💻, you need to read this 👇

Here we go!
Always a very nice milestone: @ammarabdalrahem.bsky.social has printed his PhD thesis on reproductive mode polymorphism in the #poplar #rust #fungus.
Congratulations Ammar 👏👏👏

It started as a master thesis project by Markus Hiltunen, and ended up in this publication in Science. What a fun project to work on! Thanks Markus - and all other coauthors, too, for a great team work! www.science.org/doi/10.1126/...
Early germline sequestration in a basidiomycete fungus
In sexual organisms, inheritance of new mutations is highly dependent on the timing of germline definition. Here, we used the fairy ring–forming fungus Marasmius oreades to challenge the general assum...

The scope of #fungi #biodiversity is only beginning to be fathomed.

Every day almost ten new species are described. 🍄🤯

Our new paper is out!
We observed a loss of function in mating compatibility for HD genes for the first time in basidiomycete fungi, and new evolutionary strata in the absence of sexually antagonistic selection!

Repeated loss of function at HD mating-type genes and of recombination in anther-smut fungi - Nature Communications
Basidiomycete fungi typically have two mating-type loci located on different chromosomes. Here, Lucotte et al. report the convergent loss-of-function of mating-type genes across several species of phy...
