Ok. Very big US #KindleBookGiveaway here: the entire Parasitology trilogy by Mira Grant, aka @seananmcguire.bsky.social. That's 12 copies of Parasite, 10 copies of Symbiont, and 10 copies of Chimera, all of which I have, and have read, and have enjoyed, and this took me 8 months to set up.

@peregrine57 thank you!

If I remember correctly, the Jinal symbiont on #discovery’s season 5 was already considered exceptionally rare at 800 years old (and it was almost dying).

There’s no way a 1070 years old #symbiont is strolling around like a 400 years old youngling.

Or is it?

#Deadwood consists of #ephemeral #biochoria, #temporary #habitats, with #decomposition by numerous specific #organisms, e.g. bacteria, #arthropods and most important diverse #fungi, some of which are shown below on a deadwood branch in #Berlin..#Fungus #Cremastra appendiculata seems being involved. L. Wang et al. (2024) studied this fungus as #symbiont supporting seeds of orchid #Cremastra #appendiculata to #germinate.

Hansen‬ et al. study the evolution of bacterial symbionts of Pariaconus psyllids in Hawaii, demonstrating that island biogeography and host plant ecology shape symbiont losses and codiversification patterns.

Some endosymbionts distort host sex ratios to favor their transmission. Cordaux and Gilbert publish a new Perspective showing how these manipulations can be driven by single symbiont loci targeting host sex-determination pathways.

A lot of people don't know this, but it turns out that Mira Grant is actually a pseudonym of @seananmcguire!

Great stuff! Good article!

And one of the scientists in this article has the same last name as the fellow who came up with the "Alien" movie designs: Giger. Maybe they're like grandfather and the younger doctor in "Young Frankenstein".

This is *wild*. I am old enough to remember when Margulis’ theories of symbiogenesis were basically heretical. Here are scientists watching it happen: https://www.quantamagazine.org/scientists-re-create-the-microbial-dance-that-sparked-complex-life-20250102/
