Hey Botanical Society friends - we're planning to have an online discussion about ways to do cool science without a huge budget (for...reasons π). Do you have experience with that? Want to be one of our discussion leaders? LMK! Date is most likely May 8th, afternoon eastern US time. πΎπ§ͺ

Fungal genomes are π€―π€―π€―
We wrote this review to summarise some lessons we learned in the last 20 years of fungal genomics.
Excited to see where our field is going in the next 20 years to come!

Any yeast people or evolutionary biologists who can help me untangle a semantic conundrum?
In a yeast sexual cycle, two haploid cells fuse to form a diploid zygote. If one of the haploids has an endosymbiont (say, a plasmid), which the zygote inherits, is this vertical or horizontal transmission?
