Pleased to finally share this fun collab that began at #Ento23 @[email protected] presented & I had seen NCBI annotated some cockroach genomes as "contaminated." Turns out NCBI & I were wrong (much more fun). Horizontal transfer of an #AntimicrobialPeptide across insects bit.ly/DrsHGT 1/🧵
This what @MarkHanson

Congrats to Megan and @DarrenObbard

Great work on naturally ocurring viruses in #Drosophila that is sorely needed! Far less attention paid to natural pathogens in fly immunity research, and this opens a lot of interesting avenues to explore with in-depth characterisation of host-virus interactions within D. melanogaster, but also across relevant virus host species and all sorts of combinations! Great stuff!
