Here's 123 new bryophyte genomes for you!
Apparently, bryophytes time and again include microbial genes in their genomic repertoire, and occupy a langer gene space than vascular plants.

Bryophytes hold a larger gene family space than vascular plants - Nature Genetics
A super-pangenome analysis incorporating 123 newly sequenced bryophyte genomes reveals that bryophytes exhibit a larger number of unique and lineage-specific gene families than vascular plants.

Happy New Year! Happy to be able to share this preprint, a long awaited model of symplasmic transport applied to multiple tissue geometries and root organ for predictive signalling gradients. Kudos to genius Eva Deinum and @VGrieneisen www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

Mitochondria consist of networks of cylindrical tubes, right? Not necessarily! - in our new preprint, @gavsturm.bsky.social investigates how mitochondria transiently adopt a beads-on-a-string morphology

Stoked to share TWO preprints on mitochondrial pearling! 🎉
We uncover how spontaneous #mitochondria pearling drives #mtDNA nucleoid distribution (doi.org/10.1101/2024...), and
@gavsturm.bsky.social
et al. dissect the biophysics behind it (doi.org/10.1101/2024...). Details below! 🔬🧵🧪
