@petedp.bsky.social et al. explore the molecular evolution of the A and B haplotypes of a large, sex-linked inversion polymorphism in the zebra finch responsible for most of the genetic variation in sperm morphology. 🔗 doi.org/10.1093/gbe/evag056 #genome #societyjournal

Molecular Evolution of a Sex-Linked Inversion Polymorphism in Zebra Finches

Abstract. Recent years have seen an explosion in examples of supergenes, where recombination is suppressed between haplotypes, often via inversion polymorp

🎉 #EGG2026 Celebrating 70 Years of Ecological Genetics!🥚🧬 A milestone meeting for ecologists and practitioners 📍 Sheffield + Online (Hybrid) 📅 Abstract by 15 Feb 🎟️ Register by 15 Mar britishecologicalsociety.org/content/egg2... @britishecologicalsociety.org #Ecology #Genetics #eDNA

🔭🐑 The first lambs have arrived, and spot on time from consort sightings in November! Soon village bay will be full of skipping lambs and frantic field workers....🏃‍♀️‍➡️

Good to see a set of questions on long-running biology experiments on #universitychallenge tonight.

👋 Interested in working on the evolution of genetic architecture 🧬 of complex traits using linked-read sequencing of thousands of common lizards 🦎 from a wild population and common garden experiment? #evolution #genetics Well, I have a PhD offer for you 👇 devillemereuil.legtux.org/erc-funded-p...

📣 The final chapter of my PhD is now out in @evolletters.bsky.social !! 📣 🦌 Using genomic and fitness data from a long-term study of red deer we investigated the interaction between inbreeding depression and the environment (ID × E) doi.org/10.1093/evle...

Unsurprisingly I am very much in agreement with this article. I've put a lot of effort in recently to prevent the undermining of field-based teaching, including pointing out the invisible subsidy that field-based teaching (& research) provide other teaching & research www.cell.com/trends/ecolo...

Extinction of experience among ecologists

Fieldwork-based research and education in ecology are under multiple threats and are progressively declining. We call for greater attention to this ongoing loss of direct field experience within the e...

New NERC DTP PhD opportunity on social networks and demography in Soay sheep with me, Dan Nussey, Amy Sweeny and others (Autumn 2025 start). Apply by January 6th. Project and application details: e4-dtp.ed.ac.uk/e5-dtp/super...

I am loving the @evolletters.bsky.social cover by G. Moggioli. This issue has 3 articles about the Darwin-Bateman paradigm. Lehtonen & Parker doi.org/10.1093/evle... provide theory, w/ comments by @timjanicke.bsky.social doi.org/10.1093/evle... and Mokos et al. doi.org/10.1093/evle...

Just posting this to #popgen Here's a link to my notes on population & quantitative genetics: github.com/cooplab/popg... Hoping to extend it more after the winter holidays, as I'm just finishing up teaching the undergrad version of class.
