Absolutely CRAZY study from the brilliant @leahhouri.bsky.social in @leslievosshall.bsky.social lab ✨ What restricts mosquito mating between species, how some species "break" this barrier and become dominant, and how that shift can reshape the landscape of mosquito-borne disease. Don't miss Leah's 🧵

A beautiful work on one of the most fascinating groups of viruses replicating in both humans and mosquitoes, with vastly different environments, including temperature. @tamanash.bsky.social shows stop codon selectivity enables temperature-dependent trade-off between protein production and processing

Why can't these viruses be friends? In a new study from her PhD @cvrinfo.bsky.social, #AnnaSims shows that #SARS-CoV-2 infections segregate into distinct microdomains as they spread. But why? (1/N) journals.asm.org/doi/10.1128/...
