Spatial Single-Cell Mapping of Transcriptional Differences Across Genetic Backgrounds in Mouse Brains

Zachary Hemminger, Gabriela Sanchez-Tam, Haley De Ocampo, Aihui Wang, Thomas J Underwood, Fangming Xie, Qiuying Zhao, Dongyuan Song, Jingyi Jessica Li, Hong‐Wei Dong, Roy Wollman

The paper introduces ATLAS, a method to map transcriptional differences across genetic backgrounds in mouse brains, revealing significant cell type distribution changes between sexes and genetic models.

Pisum sativum applies sanctions to less effective strains at the nodule level, but not within mixed nodules

Thomas J Underwood, Beatriz Jorrín, Lindsay Ann Turnbull, Philip S. Poole

This study shows that pea plants sanction entire nodules based on nitrogen fixation rates, not individual bacteria, preventing ineffective strains from evading sanctions by piggybacking.

Resource allocation in the nodules of the Pisum sativum - Rhizobium symbiosis

Thomas J Underwood, Philip Simon Poole

This study shows pea plants sanction nodules with less effective rhizobia based on global nodule comparisons and can differentiate between bacteria with small fixation effectiveness variations.
