Excited to share our paper co-led by Nimrod Serok & Ksenia Polonsky! 🧬 ​To overcome the limits of Sum-of-Pairs (SoP) score we built 2 deep learning models: 1️⃣ Score alignments more accurately 2️⃣ Rank alternatives to choose the best one ​https://doi.org/10.1093/molbev/msag173 ​#Phylogenomics #BioInfo

1/11 🔥 New preprint alert 🔥 We wanted to know what plants in the wild really care about. So we asked them 🎤. Here is what we learned: “Biotic-response networks are an important organizer of the transcriptome in wild Arabidopsis thaliana populations” www.biorxiv.org/content/10.6...

We (Nordborg & Weigel labs) need input on the next generation of genome browsers & data download modes for the #Arabidopsis #1001GenomesPlus project. We have now a curated collection of over 500 long read genomes. Please help us by filling out this questionnaire: docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1F...

Next generation of 1001 Genomes Plus browser and data download
Please indicate all features you would like to see in a browser that displays features of completely sequenced Arabidopsis thaliana genomes

From a gene’s single cell expression–through spatial localization–to novel function, and beyond! Now out @natplants.nature.com We built a comprehensive spatial-transcriptomic atlas of Arabidopsis, revealing cell-type identities across organs in unprecedented detail www.nature.com/articles/s41...

A single-cell, spatial transcriptomic atlas of the Arabidopsis life cycle - Nature Plants
This study presents an extensive single-nucleus and spatial transcriptomic atlas of the Arabidopsis life cycle that represents ten distinct developmental time points inclusive of six diverse organs.
