The cover of the January issue of JSE features a stunning image that captures the dramatic Tsapong gorge below Namcha Barwa in the Himalaya, where a staggering 4000-meter difference in elevation drives striking changes in flora and highlights the incredible ecological diversity of the area.

This work on #genome gigantism by Li et al. uses a #chromosome-scale genome assembly to reveal genomic features and conservation implications in the #endangered aquatic #plant Ottelia songmingensis.

Panel of data figures illustrating genome assembly data for the endangered aquatic monocot Ottelia songmingensis reveal that LTR retrotransposons (>90%) and inefficient removal, together with two whole-genome duplications, jointly drove genome gigantism. In addition, data illustrate that a recent burst of LTR activity further accelerated expansion. Population resequencing reveals extremely low nucleotide diversity and long-term decline, underscoring both the evolutionary forces behind genome gigantism and urgent conservation concerns.

Edward Smith Deevey Jr. (3 December 1914 – 29 November 1988), born in #AlbanyNewYork, was a prominent American #ecologist and #paleolimnologist, and an early protégé of #GEvelynHutchinson at #YaleUniversity. He was a creative pioneer in several areas, including quantitative #palynology, cycling of natural #isotopes, #biogeochemistry, #populationDynamics, #systematics and #ecology of freshwater #zooplankton, and he promoted the use of life tables in ecology. In 1938.

Notes on ##UAP Discussions : Students and researchers should really by now be fully acquainted with the contemporary work of Dr. #BeatrizVillarroel and her cohort. Students in particular can get a good look at the #systematics and technical requirements for poking and prodding a #dataset and deriving challenge resistent statistics to support or refute the inevitable questions that #Science is required to ask. The course you can’t take yet is in there. It’s spread out all over the place otherwise

Annotated flow diagram illustrating a deep learning framework integrating morphological traits and DNA barcodes (ITS2, matK, rbcL) to identify Fabaceae species. By combining image data and molecular sequences, a CNN artificial neural network (MMNet) enables automatic species identification and barcode evaluation.
