- We just released a new version of MINI-EX, our tool to infer cell-type specific gene regulatory networks in plants starting from single-cell RNA-Seq data. MINI-EX v3.2 can now be run on large datasets of over 100,000 cells! More info here: github.com/VIB-PSB/MINI...
- Reposted by Vandepoele labThis paper is the result of a fruitful collaboration between the Ferrante & Iudicone labs (Naples, Italy - @luciacampese.bsky.social) and the Vyverman and Vandepoele groups (Ghent, Belgium) @vandepoelelab.bsky.social . Shout-out to @fwovlaanderen.bsky.social for funding this research 🔬
- Reposted by Vandepoele labIn our latest, we tackle a long-standing conundrum: when and where do diatoms reproduce sexually? Using a lab-to-field strategy, we designed conserved sex markers applied to microcosms & Tara Oceans metatranscriptomes, revealing widespread sex in the global ocean.
