In our #MidweekMovie, we highlight migration and morphogenesis of visceral muscles in the forming Drosophila midgut from Manfred Frasch and colleagues. They identify Tey as crucial regulator for the arrangement of longitudinal gut muscles.

'Using an inbred line from a natural population with high diapause plasticity, we demonstrate that diapause is determined epigenetically: only a subset of genetically identical individuals enter diapause and this diapause plasticity is epigenetically transmitted for at least three generations'

It was a long week that ended with me having to lecture a group of grad students about how they should clean oil off a $40k objective, and how I now had to try to get dried immersion oil off a silicone immersion objective. Managed to clean it but it was tough. Had to go into lab today so I indulged in some microscope therapy. I seem to take pictures of the same thing, but darn it, it's pretty.

Some weeks in the lab are tiring + difficult going, but then I get onto the microscope and am always reminded about why I love my work. Look at them go 🤩 #fluorescenceFriday

This “thought-provoking” paper exploits new #CryoET tools to examine the state of chromatin in situ, finding that nucleosomes in baker’s yeast cells are different from those in test tubes. elifesciences.org/articles/876

The UC Davis Center for Population Biology postdoctoral fellowship is now being advertised. This is a great opportunity to come join our wonderful community of Evolution & Ecology here at Davis. Please RT.
