New year, new students! ✨
We are pleased to welcome Maria, who is going to be with us for a short time to learn everything you need to start a plant genomics project, from DNA extraction to sequencing, and of course we use ONT for our projects, with Julie teaching all new students about the technology! 🧬
Our Functional Annotation course has come to an end, and we are happy with how it went. More than 20 early-career researchers explored plant genomics together and brought amazing curiosity to every session. Grateful to all participants—your passion and hard work give us real optimism for the next generation of plant science. 🌱🧬
#PlantGenomics #Bioinformatics #FunctionalAnnotation #ScienceEducation
Our course “From Gene Models to Biological Insights – Functional Annotation” has officially concluded! Proud to have supported 20+ early-career researchers in developing their skills in plant genomics. 🌱🧬
Looking forward to seeing their discoveries!

Excited to share our new #preprint!
Large-scale Phylogenomics Reveals Systematic Loss of Anthocyanin Biosynthesis Genes at the Family Level in #Cucurbitaceae
🔗 https://doi.org/10.1101/2025.10.06.680802
We uncover family-level losses of anthocyanin and proanthocyanidin biosynthesis genes — shedding light on the evolution of pigment diversity in cucurbits.
