🎉🧬 Multiple genomes/pangenome? Time for a parTEA! 🧬 ☕️

Tired of annotating TEs one genome at a time? Same. So we organised a parTEA!

Introducing EarlGrey ParTEA v0.1.3 — consistent TE annotation across all your genomes, in parallel, with one command: github.com/TobyBaril/Ea...

🍄Transposon traffic in the mycocosmos🍄
Fascinating work reveals extensive horizontal TE transfer across fungi (@jromeijn.bsky.social, Iñigo Bañales & @mfseidl.bsky.social; doi.org/10.1016/j.cu...). I wrote a Dispatch to prime non-specialists,check it out here: doi.org/10.1016/j.cu....

Molecular effects of transposable element sequences in mammalian cells - Genome Biology Transposable elements (TEs) are often epigenetically repressed in eukaryotic cells, but still affect the molecular state of the cell in certain contexts. A flurry of recent studies have elucidated new...

Interesting review of new-found functions of TEs in mammalian genomes, especially over the last three years.

Historic transposon mobilisation waves create distinct pools of adaptive variants in a major crop pathogen - Nature Communications In this study, the authors analysed a large genomic dataset to trace how jumping genes shaped the global spread of a major wheat pathogen and reveal bursts of activity over decades that drove adaptati...

TEs aren’t just genomic parasites, they’re also engines of genomic novelty.

Our new study with ~2,000 Z. tritici genomes shows repeated TE mobilization waves during global expansion.

Thrilled to have been selected for a short talk at the EMBO mobile genome meeting in Heidelberg in November!

Want to hear about the adaptive potential of TEs but can’t wait til then, and happen to be at #ESEB2025? Come and see my talk at 16.20 today, room 120+121!

Rather you than me!

Awesome insight into the role of TEs in deep sea adaptation in H. gigas. A ~19.6Gb assembly(!), and @tillysscott.bsky.social also decided to manually curate the TE families(!!!). Amazing body of work demonstrating the power of TEs to facilitate adaptation!
