A prisoner's dilemma... in #PLANTS!!

Cool new experiment in #PLOSBiology demonstrates a latent cooperative allele (i.e., has shared benefits in monoculture, but gets exploited with others) that is apparently maintained in population via pleiotropy.

Bats, much like Death Metal singers, use 'false vocal folds' to create low frequency vocalizations.

I guess that's why:
(1) Batman growls all the time; and
(2) bats love Chuck Schuldiner.

Siehste siehste siehste #NDR:

Soooooo macht man das richtig und produziert eine #Schlagzeile.

Und Knaller: Das ist eine Schlagzeile für eine #Studie aus der #Wissenschaft aus #PLOSBiology. Ernsthaft! 😆 Da werden alle Leute von #Scicomm und #Winnseschaftskommunikation blass vor Neid. 🤭

Aber n-tv ist ja auch boulevardesk angehaucht und berichtet genauso Promistücke wie echte Nachrichten.

It seems people introduce themselves in a given instance, so here goes. In my early days, I worked with #indigenous communities. Then I wrote about biology, from molecules to ecosystems, for #PLOSBiology. I learned a ton of #science and indulged an inordinate fondness for large carnivores, especially #pumas. Then I returned to a longstanding interest in exposing the misuse of power, and science, for private gain. Doing that now most every day. So many cases to investigate. So little time.
