Day 1 of #ISPB2026 has come to an end!
Today’s programme included the great talk by Adrián Cazares, followed by sessions on plasmid maintenance, replication and evolution.
Did you meet up with old friends at the get together or did you make some new ones?

Our paper is now out in the @isme-microbes.bsky.social Journal (and selected as editor's choice)! We use an ecological framework to analyze the distribution of small transposable elements in over 30,000 prokaryotic genomes, characterizing their genomic niche doi.org/10.1093/isme...

A beautiful piece of detective work by @honour.bsky.social + colleagues revealing the origins of Ralstonia disease of bananas on Martinique. As so often, ICEs (ICERs!) prove to be extraordinary capacitors for evolutionary change. Evolution for evolution's sake 🤔
