   Single-cell eQTL mapping in yeast reveals a tradeoff between growth and reproduction

   James Boocock, Noah Alexander ... Leonid Kruglyak

   Using single-cell RNA sequencing, we mapped thousands of expression quantitative trait loci in yeast, including a variant in GPA1 that influences gene expression, cell-cycle occupancy, and mating efficiency.

    First evidence for the evolution of host manipulation by tumors during the long-term vertical transmission of tumor cells in Hydra oligactis

    Justine Boutry, Océane Rieu ... Fréderic Thomas

    Transmissible tumors in Hydra can manipulate host phenotype by inducing the growth of supernumerary tentacles, enhancing host foraging efficiency and promoting tumor vertical transmission, akin to manipulative parasites.
