Looking for a postdoc in experimental evolution? You're very welcome to apply to this position in my group, at University Paris-Saclay.

The goal is to study the evolutionary and plastic response of the transcriptome to stable vs fluctuating environments, in the model fungus Zymoseptoria tritici.

@hanscees @arnaudlerouzic ? Nobody even hinted toward plastic soup?

@hanscees @miekeroth The whole point of the project is to make a lot of different fungus soups (cold soup, warm soup, salty soup, etc). Soup enthusiasts are very welcome to apply! Soups are plastic-free!

@arnaudlerouzic @miekeroth Wish I was young and could move to Paris (and had a PhD).
Interesting fungus, eating our wheat crops

A thousand-genome panel retraces the global spread and adaptation of a major fungal crop pathogen - Nature Communications

Zymoseptoria tritici is an important fungal pathogen of wheat which has spread globally. Here, the authors perform genomic analyses on a collection of ~1100 Z. tritici samples from 42 countries to describe its global spread and elucidate mechanisms of adaptation to different environmental conditions.
