Lucas Munnes closes this Wednesday’s session at the #SOLRUB2025 presenting about a #pangenome in the Morelloid clade. Different species have different levels of polyploidy with S. nigrum being highest (6x). Synteny with S. americanum (2x). For nigrum subA ~ americanum. subB & subC ~ villosum (4x).

Laura breeding /generating the eggplants we all want to have.

Jaime Prohens brings us a wonderful presentation about the importance of #eggplant populations to elucidate the molecular players in agronomical traits at #SOLRUB2025. Having a good population was essential to identify the gene behind the formation of #pickles in eggplants.

Nice presentation by Martina Stromvik at the #SOLRUB2025aboit the #allotetraploid potato species, Solanum acaule. This species has been used to introgress cold tolerance into some potato varieties like Viking. One of the ancestral parents remains elusive in its identification.

An-Sofie Tas brings us a presentation of a wild coffee species, Coffea dactylifera, at #SOLRUB2035. She proposes the use of this species as alternative to the coffee crops although breeding is necessary. This species has a compact form, similar to arabica. It also has smaller beans and sweet taste.

Switching from biodiversity to the omics technologies session at the #SOLRUB2025. Presenting Adi Avni about plant-based sensors. The idea , convert plant gene responses in a signal read by an electrode that can transmit the information to a computer.

Lucas Munnes just provided some update on Morelloid genomes and where Solanum nigrum might have come from at #SOLRUB2025

It took us a very long time but here is Arslan with the Nicotina glauca genome and the leaf developmental series transcriptome and metabolome at #SOLRUB2025

Vivien out of her usual lichen track presents the analysis of Alkengi officinarum and transcriptomic change during the calyx color change at #SOLRUB2025.

Job Alert! We're hiring a BIOINFORMATICIAN / NGS SPECIALIST to support our new Molecular Biodiversity Lab in the @terra-cluster.org at @unituebingen.bsky.social. Like the idea to use your skills for understanding biodiversity? To work on diverse questions in a wonderful place? Apply! Please repost!

Be our new colleague! 🎉 The Dept of Molecular and Cellular Biology at the University of Geneva is hiring an Assistant Professor or Associate Professor. 👉 More details here: lnkd.in/e8Z9eAm4 👉 Our department: mocel.unige.ch Please feel free to share this opportunity with your network.

Kristina Gruden follows on the first session the third day at #SOLRUB3025. She is presenting us the last developments of the study of an ERF transcription factor as regulator for an #endophyte community in #potato. Pti5 is involved in potato immunity. They used a knowledge network to get new results

Luciana Gaccione closes the session at the #SOLRUB2025 describing their work building an #eggplant graph-based #pangenome and its application to identify genes behind several agronomical traits.

Luciana Gaccione presents her phantastic results on the eggplant pangenome and panphenome at #SOLRUB2025.

We come back from our lunch to #SOLRUB2025 with Giovanni Giuliano. He is presenting about the elucidation of the molecular mechanisms behind the evolution of #tomato fruit shape. Elongated ovoid tomatoes appeared in Italy in the 18th century. Non ribbed tomatoes appeared in the US in 19th century.

Marie Bolger closes the session at the #SOLRUB2025 with a presentation about the application of Helixer to the annotation of the #Solanaceae genomes.

..and finally Marie's new Helixer models for Solanales at #SOLRUB2025

And here is Marie about her new Solanacae models. Here the model B which is particularly good on potato.

Marie explains how she selects data for her Helixer gene annotations using Mercator quality control and Pubplant for genome selection at #SOLRUB2025. Read more about Pubplant: www.frontiersin.org/journals/pla...
