Dear @dfg.de So, I will spend months writing a grant and you will let people judge it with AI tools that are trained on predatory journals like Frontiers, MDPI or alike that are practically not peer-reviewed??? Is this how you will select cutting edge science??? #idiocracy

Congratulations, Edgar et all.! Beautiful work 🤩

Blinded by the lights? Re-examining the adaptive role of transposable elements in plants with population genomics Transposable elements (TEs) are ubiquitous components of the genome whose mobility can be triggered by environmental stress and influenced by genotype…

Have we been overstating the role of transposable elements in adaptation to local or rapidly changing environmental conditions? Happy to share my (somewhat unpopular?) opinion paper on this matter: www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...
Thanks to those who already shared the link!
