Plants also think "better alone than in bad company." In our new GBE paper (part of my thesis), we show how reproductive assurance through selfing combined with waterbird dispersal shaped the invasion history and genomics of Cotula coronopifolia 🌱🦆🧪 DOI: doi.org/10.1093/gbe/... #PopGen

New MEC study led by @joaquinortego.bsky.social on a radiation of alpine grasshoppers shows high endemism at southern latitudes, while connectivity in the north maintains wider ranges. @ebdonana.bsky.social @evobiouppsala.bsky.social @wileyecology.bsky.social 🔗: buff.ly/bJzyYML 📷: Marina Trillo
Using as a model system the charismatic grasshopper radiation 'Chorthippus binotatus species complex', @joaquinortego.bsky.social and I aim to improve our understanding of the evolutionary and ecological processes driving genomic divergence and hybridisation in montane hotspots of biodiversity.

Geometric morphometric characterization of the Balkan alpine grasshopper genus Oropodisma Uvarov, 1942 (Orthoptera, Acrididae, Melanoplinae), with description of two new species
In this study, we employ a geometric morphometric approach to quantify morphological differences among taxa of the genus Oropodisma Uvarov,1942, a complex of alpine grasshoppers comprising several nar...
