Congratulations to @rupa_immanuel for winning best poster at COBRA 2024 in San Diego. (📷: Rupa with @ISBNitinBaliga, pictured at ISB) Rupa's poster reported findings from the recent @NatureComms paper out of the @baliga_lab that she co-authored with @JakeVal_SysBio.

Replying to @JakeVal_SysBio
@JakeVal_SysBio, @ISBNitinBaliga & @baliga_lab colleagues found that gene mutations selected over a relatively short timeframe in the two microbes led to distinct functions. @natcomms isbscience.org/news/2024/09/…

Valenzuela et al. show how a few mutations in an evolved community can cause niche-differentiated ecotypes with interplay that improves productivity of the interacting community across sediment & groundwater subpopulations. @JakeVal_SysBio @ISBNitinBaliga nature.com/articles/s41467-0…

many things happening, first things first: the children book I'm part of is out: "Kira Coral and the disappearing colors of the sea" .. more timely than ever following the announcement of 4th Global Coral Bleaching :( , still a story of realism and hope **! @UniKonstanz

new work led by @Ronen_Liberman as a research visit to my lab doi.org/10.1007/s00338-024-0… in a nutshell: whatever zoox are there will be taken up by coral larvae, while host ID determines what is kept .. you can use coral larvae as a sieve to assay env. zoox diversity! @UniKonstanz

It's #CoralsWeek. Coral reefs are in trouble, but there is hope. We are invested in research that will help corals survive increasingly hot ocean temperatures.
