Moolec achieves USDA approval for plant-grown animal proteins. Moolec’s genetically engineered soybean accumulates animal meat protein. It is unlikely to pose an increased plant pest risk relative to non-engineered soybeans. newswire.com/news/moolec-be…
Move over mitochondria, a new organelle called the nitroplast is here. In a new Science study, researchers report that a nitrogen-fixing organelle has been identified in a marine alga. Learn more ⬇️ 📄: scim.ag/6FL #SciencePerspective: scim.ag/6FM

This paper investigates a two-step process using bacteria and microalgae to extract metals from e-waste. The method is efficient, with microalgae showing better uptake. It emphasizes the potential of microbial biominers in resource recovery onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/mb…

A bacterium has evolved into a new cellular structure inside algae newscientist.com/article/242646…
A nitrogen-fixing organelle, or “nitroplast,” has been identified in a marine alga. This discovery sheds light on the evolutionary transition from endosymbiont to organelle. Learn more this week in Science: scim.ag/6yX
Happy to share my latest colab. work! With @NASA, @NASAAstrobio and @jgi support we uncovered novel thermophilic viruses belonging to old and strange viral lineages. Some even share relatives in extreme environments like hydrothermal vents! nature.com/articles/s4200…
An advanced stage of symbiosis between a nitrogen-fixing bacterium and an alga is thought to capture the formation of a new type of organelle—a "nitroplast" #science #biology #symbiosis #evolution
My seed-grown sweet potatoes. These two varieties are what remains from a couple dozen seedlings a few years ago. Some didn't produce any useful tubers. Some had tubers that didn't survive winter storage. Some didn't wake up in spring.
It is completely insane to me that octopus dream despite having wildly different brains than us. Taxonomically we diverged with them at flatworms, which just have small ganglia let alone dreaming capabilities. Dreaming is convergent neurological evolution?? Why???

These otherworldly things are... legumes! What you see are two fruits from the genus Scorpiurus. The name derives from the Latin 'scorpius' -Scorpion- and the ancient Greek 'urus' -tail-, clearly referring to the shape of the spiny recurved legumes. Luckily these don't sting!
Rubus spectabilis seedlings , salmonberry, I’m hoping to a nice form of red types, not keen on their taste but the early colourful flowers and fruit are a very welcome start to the fruit season
