Sex without the shuffle – a plant that breaks the rules of inheritance general

An international team led by André Marques at the Max Planck Institute for Plant Breeding Research in Cologne has shown that the Brazilian beak-sedge Rhynchospora tenuis reproduces sexually - producing pollen, fertilising its egg cells and sets seeds - but has completely lost the reshuffling of DNA between the chromosomes from each parent.

I don't have a problem with this decision. There are more than 50 bird species in AoNZ with a higher threat status than kororā. They get priority. Limited resources means triaging is critical. I get that kororā are cute, but that shouldn't drive conservation decisions.

So glad that @mattrjones.bsky.social got to see this little beauty! Find out more about Arctic Sandwort on its #PlantAtlas2020 page plantatlas2020.org/atlas/2cd4p9... Bad news: population has declined on Shetland. Good news: species was rediscovered in the west of Ireland in 2008 (after 47 years!)
