Time-lapse single-cell transcriptomics reveals modulation of histone H3 for dormancy breaking in fission yeast

Asynchronicity in fungal spore germination makes transcriptomic analysis of the process challenging. Here, the authors assay single cell transcriptomes of germinating yeast cells and find that one of the histone H3 genes shows fluctuating expression, disruption of which causes germination defects.
