🚨New paper, now published in @Nature! Using pan-genetics across the Solanum genus🍅🥔🍆we reveal why gene duplications🧬are major contingencies in crop engineering. My postdoc work in the Lippman lab @CSHL, in collab. with @mike_schatz and many others! nature.com/articles/s41586-0…

So great to see this paper out in @Nature. Beautiful molecular characterization of a new toxin-antidote drive system in maize, led by Ben berube, with assistance from Martienssen lab @antnerves @CrisAlves_bio @BioJlynn and collaborators @arminscheben @jrossibarra Jerry Kermicle
Why was corn able to spread and adapt so rapidly across the Americas 4,000 years ago? Research from CSHL’s Rob Martienssen suggests that the answer may lie in a genetic system called Teosinte Pollen Drive. cshl.edu/corns-missing-link/

How do TFs recruit the transcriptional machinery? This critical cellular function is incompletely understood. Led by postdoc Nick Morffy, we experimentally identify Arabidopsis ADs at scale and use this immense dataset to create an AD predictor, TADA. nature.com/articles/s41586-0…

For my friends who don’t want to age, we made something for you: CAR T cells that remove senescent cells in old mice promote stem cell regeneration and tissue fitness in the intestine! Check out our preprint ⬇️

1. Much human genetic variation is phenotypically meaningless. Why? Cooperative genes are locked in a forever war w/ selfish genes. The cooperative genes have won most battles but now our genomes are littered with the dead & decaying bodies of a million selfish genes. 🧵

The MaizeCODE paper is on BioRXiv! New insights on enhancers in plants and a lot of data for every maize (epi)geneticist to play with, including on teosinte, the ancestor of maize. A big team effort, very grateful to everyone involved! biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/…
