It's been awhile, but I found myself recommending to someone today our groundbreaking code, lead by the inimitable Andy Kern, that magically converts pdfs to... pdfs. This solves the conversion issue so many journals pose to the intrepid scientist. github.com/andrewkern/p...
GitHub - andrewkern/pdf2pdf: does the magical pdf-to-pdf conversion popular in academic journal submission sites and does it faster than they do

A reference genome and transcriptome of haustorial development in Pedicularis groenlandica reveal diverse trajectories of haustoria-associated gene evolution in parasitic plants
Novel traits frequently evolve by co-opting existing genetic pathways through direct repurposing of existing genes or neofunctionalization of duplicated genes. Parasitism represents a major innovation...

Updated our P2 output summary! 📊

Even with strong variation between flow cells, we are seeing an average yield of ~80 Gbp.

Huge thanks to Julie for the sequencing work.
