So we choose environments that are close enough … Very familiar with working actinomycetes. We can also genetically manipulate them. We can do strain improvements. …

It was also evolution. It was … see. So it doesn’t seem to be a correlation between biodiversity in taxa and biodiversity in secondary metabolites. …

So, when we make genetic mutants in a fungal isolate, I can see something … there’s a good talk today. So fungi, you look at the ITS region. That’s equivalent to the 16S. However, we did …

And you see how they’re– … especially across species that might be a little bit more genetically distant where the BGCs may have drifted but they …

Hey everyone. Welcome back to Natural Prodcast. This continues the series of interviews we recorded at the Society … made it onto our list is because we wanted to have diversity. And so we wanted a profile across that protein … could have arisen from. DAN UDWARY: OK, so sort of a phylogenetic reconstruction kind of a thing. ALISON NARAYAN: …
