The Plant Meiosis Meeting is over‼️ We had over 100 participants from 17 countries worldwide🤠 Three days of amazing science🧬, networking, socializing🍾, and much more! It was an exceptionally stimulating experience on so many levels🤩 #plantmeiosismeeting #pmm #Plantmeiosis

We @RIBESresearch Radboud University are seeking to strengthen our team in Crop Biotechnology with two new assistant professors. The deadlines are November 3. Please re-share! ru.nl/en/working-at/… ru.nl/en/working-at/…

📢 We are recruiting! We offer a bioinformatics engineer position Institute Genetics, reproduction & development to work on an exciting project on #Meiosis & #Polyploidy! Please RT! 🙏 #ResearchOpportunity #Bioinformatics #CNRS European Research Council (ERC)

I am recruiting graduate students for my lab McGill University for admission in Fall 2025! Get in touch if you're interested in how brain circuits implement distributed computation, including dopamine-based distributed RL and probabilistic representations.

Consider this opportunity if you want to start a research group on the genetics of reproduction! This is a highly supportive department and excellent scientific environment to do so MPIPZ Cologne raphael mercier

🚀 Our collaborative work with Mónica Pradillo , "Genetic dissection of MutL complexes in Arabidopsis meiosis," is now published in NAR! 🌱 doi.org/10.1093/nar/gk… 🔬 We show that MutLγ is crucial for ZMM-dependent crossovers, with MUS81 unable to fully compensate for its loss.

📢 Excited to share our work out now in nature! 📢 We present the phased pan-genome of the European tetraploid potato, based on 10 historical cultivars representing 85% of European potato diversity. Learn more below! 🔗 nature.com/articles/s4158… 1/7

1/7 I am very excited to announce our🌹NEW PAPER OUT IN NATURE!🌹 Bimodal centromeres in pentaploid dogroses shed light on their unique meiosis With the Ritz and Kovařík labs we shed light on Rosa canina’s bizarre reproduction! nature.com/articles/s4158… #Meiosis4eva #Centromere

We have been tracking sequenced plant genomes for many years now not least for our denki.bsky.social activities at plabipd.de/pubplant_main.…. We have now with about 2000 species finally published this resource doi.org/10.3389/fpls.2…

‼️Can we tune crossover hotspot activity by targeting chromatin modifiers? Absolutely!💥 Our screen shows dCas9-JMJ14 represses crossovers at targeted sites, while VP64 boosts them! 🧬 Check our new preprint: biorxiv.org/content/10.110… #meiosis4ever #CRISPR #Arabidopsis

Franklin W. Stahl, a molecular biologist who helped create a methodology to confirm how DNA replicates so elegant that the research has been remembered for more than five decades as “the most beautiful experiment in biology,” has died at 95. nyti.ms/44Qs9kH
