Maybe a dumb question, but in a complete chromosome, is it normal to have base pairs after the telomeric repeats? Some of my T2T chromosomes sometimes have 300 bp after the repeats… Assembly artefacts?
Hidden Harvest is Excited to Be Part of Groundbreaking Cannabis Research!
We’re thrilled to be part of the ongoing work at Université de Moncton, where some of our Hidden Harvest genetics are playing a key role in developing PM-resistant cannabis cultivars.

Never heard of a -80 that broke during regular working hours. Those things know when you’re not reachable.
Still got there in time (-47) to make sure our precious pollen is kept safe. I would think it would lose viability quicker than bacterial cultures at room temperature.
Looking for someone that still has the installation disc (or equivalent) for the Perkin Elmer 2030 Workstation… I have an old Victor X3 for which the computer stopped working and I lost the CD!
@ImperfectFunGuy@WestVirginiaU@DanielleMikola1 This will be my 12th fall semester at @umoncton, and the 10th I’m teaching Botany (with the lab). And even though my first love was also rust fungi, I’m now onto cannabis powdery mildew!
@asc_csa@CRSNG_NSERC Au Lone Pine Cemetery… rien de mieux qu’un endroit un peu glauque pour faire ressortir l’aspect « eerie » de la noirceur qui s’installe avec le soleil en haut de nos têtes! Photos prises avec un iPhone…
@wheat_research@miiiike_sm Make sense! Wheat accounts for 2-3% of Canada’s GDP… But then, where is the $3.5M for a Canadian National Cannabis Cluster (cannabis = 0.5% of Canada’s total economy!).
~20 years ago, I discovered a hybrid between two rust fungi. A paper just came out that investigated the frequency of these hybrids in WY and CO, and showed that some isolates could infect C. ribicola alternate host (Ribes spp.). @richamelin https://t.co/Bnxunpn4lV
Question for the #MPMI crowd: if I have a ongoing infection on an N. benthamiana leaf, then agroinfiltrate an R gene recognizing the pathogen, will it kill the pathogen? Trigger a noticeable HR?
@dromius I think I remember that (Avrblb2 paper?). Yeah, I was thinking of having the pathogen first, then agroinfiltrate (even though it will likely affect the infection even with an empty vector). But could try both, before and after the pathogen…
