New Bsc students joining the group at JYU!! Interesting projects about glyphosate and immune function, temperature and intracellular stress & microbiome in wild populations

New glyphosate paper accepted in Environmental Microbiology Reports! Congrats Pere and Miia for their persistence and hard work!!Rainio MJ, Ruuskanen S, Helander M, Saikkonen K, Saloniemi I, Puigbo P. 2021. Adaptation of bacteria to glyphosate: a microevolutionary perspective of the enzyme 5-enolpyruvylshikimate-3-phosphate (EPSP) synthase. Environmental Microbiology Reports, in press.

A super nice methods paper out in Toxics: Eeva T, Raivikko N, Espín S, Sanchez-Virosta P, Ruuskanen S, Sorvari J, Rainio M.2021. Bird feces as indicators of metal pollution: pitfalls and solutions. Toxics. We partition between and within individuals and sample types and make recommendations for future analysis for cost-effective but reliable analysesnd among individualstemporal variation and variation

An important paper out in Journal of Hazarduous Materials: A new bioinformatics tool developed by Pere Puigpo shows that >50% of microbial species in human gut are potentially sensitive to glyphosate.

New people joining the lab!! Martta Liukkonen will start her PhD (at Jyväskylä) and Euphrasie Servant (from Sorbonne University) her MSc internship in Janunary 2021. Welcome!

New paper accepted: Stier, Hsu, Marciau, Doligez, Gustafsson, Bize, Ruuskanen: Born to be young? Prenatal thyroid hormones increase early-life telomere length in wild collared flycatchers

The underlying mechanisms of the lifelong consequences of prenatal environmental condition on health and ageing remain little understood. Thyroid hormones…

New paper on evolution of stress responses accepted in Trends in Ecology and Evolution

All organism have a stress response, but how do adaptive stress responses evolve? In our new Opinion-paper in Trends in…

Newly accepted in Scientific Reports: Hsu et al. Testing for context-dependent effects of maternal thyroid hormones on offspring survival and physiology: and experimental approach manipulating temperature in a wild bird species

Our article on the risks of glyphosate in circular economy has been accepted for publication in Science of the Total Environment (Muola et al. 2020). We show that glyphosate residues in manure influence growth of crop plants.

Pujana Basnet from Turku Vocational Institute is joining our group as a trainee for 2 months. Warm welcome!
