This is super interesting. Especially the discussion on the vine with the single line of parasite cells that spans nearly the length of the vine that hosts it.

This is super interesting. Especially the discussion on the vine with the single line of parasite cells that spans nearly the length of the vine that hosts it. Then they mention that the parasite DNA has really long interons, which are non-protein-encoding base pair segments. The parasite has extremely long stretches of interons, and they don't really know why. Which is a weird fractal, there is a vine with a long internal strand of parasite cells, which contain a very long strand of DNA interons.
