This 2-module logic: MTs ▶️ positioning, actomyosin ▶️ ingression, shows up in #Drosophila, #chytrids, and now #Spharoforma.
Maybe an ancient principle for how cells fairly divide a multinucleated cells ?

We will be looking at more species.
Next Algae !

You have to read the fine print, but technically, #zoosporic #eufungi are on today's @wikipedia.org Featured Page.

Day 3 was short but just as interesting. From the roots of #cyanobacterial names to their genomic diversity. Also a great opportunity to share my work and present my lovely #chytrids to the #ICTC13 audience and finish the day with plenty of time in beautiful Chania

Hi all! 👋
I'm Anaïs, a PhD student in environmental microbiology based in Berlin 😊
I’m working about #cyanobacteria and #chytrids dynamics, and how environmental factors influence their interactions.

Drat! Beat #chytrids by 6 years.

This Thursday 27.03, I will be talking about water pollution and aquatic #microorganisms. What is the relation of #cyanobacteria, #algae, #chytrids and manganese-oxidizing #bacteria to this topic? Register at this link to listen to the talk and find out 👀👇🏼

Figure 1 in Van den Wyngaert et al. (2025): "Illustration of zoosporic parasites infecting aquatic primary producers. (A) Freshwater diatom Ulnaria sp. (former Synedra sp.) infected by the chytrid Zygophlyctis planktonicum. (B) Marine dinoflagellate Alexandrium minutum infected by the perkinsean endoparasite Parvilucifera sinerae. (C) Red macroalgae Palmaria palmata infected by the oomycete Olpidiopsis palmariae (modified from Badis et al. 2019). (D) Brown macroalgae Macrocystis sp. infected by Maullinia ectocarpii. Arrows indicate the parasite. Scale bars = 20 μm."

May all of your #chytrid infections be sublethal.

A walk in Cregagh Glen today with @dmac00.bsky.social yielded Synchytrium globosum on Galium odoratum, the first record of this species from Ireland (and B&I as far as I can tell) and apparently the first global record for this host. What a great woodland to have nearby! #FungiFriends #Chytrids

Yes for an episode on #chytrids! I'm totally up for it!

The #aquaticfungi episode from @protectspecies.bsky.social Podcast dropped, with hosts Monika Bohm and @catiacanteiro.bsky.social and guest Huzefa Raja.
Next time, let's do #chytrids. 😉

More than mushrooms—what do the mycologists at Purdue study? Mushrooms, whether eaten, used medicinally or in art, are deeply intertwined with global cultures. But they actually constitute a small piece of the fungal world. Mushrooms are the fruiting body of fu...

Can you find all of the errors and quotes taken out of context, when I was talking about #chytrids and aquatic #fungi, but the writer thought I was talking about "mold"?

Hey, #mycofam, can we get over the pretention, acknowledge the loss of awesomeness in the "higher fungi", and just call them by what they truly are, the non-flagellated fungi? 😜 #fungi #mycology #chytrids #chytrid #Bd #Batrachochytrium
