The Lord of the Yeasts!

Just add sorbitol! onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10....

1/46 Hey folks, we have a new paper out on the MuLTEE. Strap in and I’ll tell you the story of how this “little paper on polyploidy” turned into the most data rich paper our lab has produced, largely thanks to the leadership and work ethic of @kaitong25.bsky.social. www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Hello everybody! The first issue of #Yeast of 2025 is now out. You can browse it at this link: onlinelibrary.wiley.com/toc/10970061... We are still looking for a beautiful front cover for the new 2025 issues. If you haven't done it yet, send us your most beautiful yeast images at [email protected] 😀

Just permanently deleted my X account and somehow I feel relief

In the latest early view research article of the series #BuddingTopics, Yun-Qing Li, Qing-Jie Xue, Hui Wang, Ang liu, Long-Yu Zhao & Xiu-Zhen Li investigate the role of YlRax1 and YlRax2 proteins during bipolar budding in the #yeast Yarrowia lipolytica. onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/...

The Early Bird Registration & Submission Deadline is approaching: March 28, 2025! 🔗 Register now premc.org/yeast2025/re... Don’t wait until the last minute, spots are limited and allocated on a first-come, first-served basis 🌟 the list of Outstanding Invited Speakers premc.org/yeast2025/in...

Wow!

Bill banning mRNA vaccines in Iowa passes subcommittee iowacapitaldispatch.com/2025/03/03/b... It’s really getting hard to keep up with the stupidity Olympics in this country

PUBMED is down. This is disaster !! We do not have the system and organization to replace it. (EuroPMC is great but not a replacement) It is crystal clear that we cannot depend on critical systems provided by a single provider. European reaction has to include science and science infrastructures.

Do you want to map the loci underlying selection but you're on a budget? Let me introduce you to the concept of sequencing the living and the dead. onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10....

An important reminder: a truly tolerant society must retain the right to deny tolerance to those who promote intolerance or it will fail.

Almost all grant-review meetings remain suspended at the US National Institutes of Health, preventing the world’s largest public funder of biomedical research from spending much of its US$47 billion annual budget. https://go.nature.com/418B5Pm

In the latest review of the series #ecoYeast , @mrtrni.bsky.social , @lumoralesr.bsky.social & collegues describe the yeasts associated with agave fermentations and how they adapted to live in this challenging environment

Mumemto: efficient maximal matching across pangenomes https://www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/2025.01.05.631388v1

Is 1- natural selection or 2- mutation (chance variation) that is mostly driving the emergence of evolutionary innovations? This is a classical question in EB, but I’m wondering what is the actual viewpoint of the community.

Plasticity and environment-specific relationships between gene expression and fitness in Saccharomyces cerevisiae Full text: www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Thrilled to have our recent review on giant #fungal #transposons, called Starships, featured on the cover of Trends in Genetics! Accompanied by some fantastic artwork! With @mycomile.bsky.social. www.cell.com/trends/genet...

For her PhD work, Carla Bautista in our group discovered that yeast hybrids adapted slower to stressful conditions, and she figured out why. See what she found here. #evolution www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Not entirely convinced that the Modern Synthesis needed an extension, but let’s give it a try Any feed back on this book?

Excited to introduce the ScRAPdb work that we recently published at Nucleic Acids Research, in which we assembled a #pangenome x #multi-omics database for #yeast. This is one step forward for a pan-multi-omics understanding of genome & trait evolution. Read more > academic.oup.com/nar/advance-...
