Study with @michaelgiolai out now in @ScienceMagazine 🥳🥳! We find evidence for a trade-off between investment in molecular defense repertoires and growth in wild plants but not in agricultural plants science.org/doi/10.1126/scie… @ERC_Research @SuomenAkatemia @snsf_ch @RECecochange

A trade-off between investment in molecular defense repertoires and growth in plants

Given the negative fitness effects that pathogens impose on their hosts, the benefits of resistance should be universal. However, there is marked variation across plant species in the number of...

Latest NASA global temperature data. Earth has never been hotter since Homo sapiens discovered agriculture in the early Holocene. Likely even since 120,000 years ago. Fossil coal, oil and gas emissions caused it. We need to stop making it worse. Yes, we can if we want to. 🧵

Our latest preprint is online: “Population genomics and molecular epidemiology of wheat powdery mildew in Europe”. Thank to first author @jigi_sha and to the many collaborators that contributed to this study! 1/8 biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/…

Population genomics and molecular epidemiology of wheat powdery mildew in Europe

Agricultural diseases are a major threat to sustainable food production. Yet, for many pathogens we know exceptionally little about their epidemiological and population dynamics, and this knowledge...

Wie nicht anders zu erwarten: @anneapplebaum stabil an der Seite der Ukraine - Pazifismus dient nur Putin. Wer die Ukraine nicht mit allem, was sie braucht, unterstützt, hilft Putin und seine Diktaturfreunden in aller Welt. Danke, Anne!

So geht Forschung! Mehrjährige Freilandversuche mit cisgene Krankheitsresistente Äpfel: Trotz Verzicht auf Pflanzenschutz kein Apfelschorf und kein Feuerbrand. transgen.de/forschung/1471.a… Leider lehnt das Präsidium der @kieluni Anträge zu solchen Versuchen ohne Diskussion ab.
