 | phylogenomics Joe DeRisi getting ready for his talk at the #ucdavis Genome Center this am http://t.co/OwZbM2nn 1/9/12 9:57 AM |
| phylogenomics Joe Derisi's first slide : "Bees, viruses, and plastids: a seminar in two parts" - I think he needs to work on his math http://t.co/0nPjChlc 1/9/12 10:05 AM |
| phylogenomics DeRisi works with mobile honeybee colony trucks that travel around the country to service pollination needs 1/9/12 10:09 AM |
| phylogenomics DeRisi - one of the problems with figuring out what is causing CCD is we do not know much about "normal" healthy colonies 1/9/12 10:09 AM |
| phylogenomics Bee trucks start in Mississippi in winter, spring in Dakotas, then To california for almonds 1/9/12 10:10 AM |
| phylogenomics DeRisi got into bee studies because of colony collapse disorder CCD 1/9/12 10:13 AM |
| phylogenomics DeRisi - grinds up bees and then assays them with "bee pathogen chip" and sequencing 1/9/12 10:13 AM |
| phylogenomics Derisi discussing his new Plos one w/ SFSU paper showing phorid flies associated with bees 1/9/12 10:16 AM |
| phylogenomics Derisi says if you want your paper to get 1000s of hits you should mention Zombies somewhere as they did w/ "Zombie bees" 1/9/12 10:18 AM |
| phylogenomics Derisi: zombie bees are cool but the phorids are probably not associated with CCD 1/9/12 10:19 AM |
| phylogenomics DeRisi found six major pathogens associated w/ bees: Nosema, phorids, spiroplasma, notovirus, and others 1/9/12 10:22 AM |
| phylogenomics DeRisi - sequencing ground up bees - most reads are host or pathogens they know about - says key to characterizing new viruses is assembly 1/9/12 10:23 AM |
| phylogenomics DeRisi mentioning their PRICE assembler - an inductive assembly method 1/9/12 10:25 AM |
 | notSoJunkDNA @phylogenomics URL for PRICE is http://t.co/bRGiY7Rz 1/9/12 10:30 AM |
| phylogenomics Why I love Joe Derisi "there will be a manuscript on the assembler someday... But the software is available for free now" 1/9/12 10:27 AM |
| phylogenomics DeRisi pooled together Bee samples prepped with various methods so that he could get diverse viruses covered 1/9/12 10:29 AM |
| phylogenomics DeRisi - lake sinai virus 2 is present in up to 10^11 copies per bee 1/9/12 10:35 AM |
| phylogenomics DeRisi - also present in bees - Crithidia - a trypanosome - related to known pathogens of other insects 1/9/12 10:36 AM |
| phylogenomics DeRisi - Crithidia also increases in abundance in winter 1/9/12 10:36 AM |
| phylogenomics DeRisi - sequenced and assembled genome of Crithidia - genome is interesting 1/9/12 10:37 AM |
| phylogenomics DeRisi - part two - the essential function of the Plasmodium apicoplast 1/9/12 10:38 AM |
| phylogenomics DeRisi - history of Studies of plasmodium apicoplast - organelle bound by four membranes - likely b/c result of secondary symbiosis 1/9/12 10:39 AM |
| phylogenomics Derisi discussing sequencing of apicoplast genome in 1990s by Gardner, McFadden, etc 1/9/12 10:40 AM |
| phylogenomics DeRisi - experiments suggest IPP is the sole essential product of apicoplast biology 1/9/12 10:47 AM |
