Rewinding the tape: historical contingency and functional constraints have shaped the evolution of APikL virulence effectors in the blast fungus
Protein evolution is influenced by historical contingencies and functional constraints, but their combined impact on rapidly diversifying pathogen virulence effectors remains poorly understood. Here, ...

💸🤗🔬🤩 Welcome to #NationalLostPennyDay, #HugDay, and #DarwinDay. Let's find those lost pennies 💸, give hugs 🤗, and celebrate the theory of evolution 🐒💡. Maybe we'll discover a new species of penny-hoarding, hug-loving humans? 🤣 #PennyLove #HugLife #EvolutionRocks 🐒💕 <3 poolnoodle
