#ploidy — Public Fediverse posts

Increasing #AntimicrobialResistance is of great medical concern. This Primer highlights a @PLOSBiology study that unveils the link between #ploidy plasticity and the emergence of #antifungal resistance in #Candida tropicalis. Paper: https://plos.io/3RAckqM Primer: https://plos.io/4i4sgN4

Any others working with mixed ploidy species or populations might be interested in this new paper and #rstats package 📦 🧬
