Tundra is home!! :) He's still got some recovering to do, but we're so glad to have him back home. Thanks for all of your good vibes! 💖 #CatsOfBotany

Sadly, after getting home from #Botany2026 one of the #catsofbotany isn't doing well. Tundra has been in the animal hospital since Sunday night due to diabetes complications. Positive thoughts and good eating vibes would be greatly appreciated. @emccnicotiana.bsky.social

I'm recruiting a PhD student to work on an NSF-funded project developing new models of trait evolution for phylogenetic comparative methods! Info about the lab here: mhibbins.github.io Applications to our grad program are due December 1. Please share!

BLink-seq is out! Linked-read sequencing that brings phased whole-genome data to non-model species at population scale. We show it phases haplotypes and detects SVs, revealing previously undocumented structural complexity in an adaptive Atlantic silverside inversion. www.biorxiv.org/content/10.6...

BLink-seq delivers population-scale haplotypes without long reads: a scalable framework for non-model genomics

Information about segregating haplotypes and structural variation (SV) can be extremely rich for a variety of applications in population genomics but remains largely inaccessible for many non-model sp...

New paper out in PNAS! 🍇🧬 Vitis phylogenomics is a tangled vine. Highlights: • ~14% of the average grape genome comes from introgression • Two classic “hybrid species” are better described as hybrid swarms • Repeated adaptation is fueled by introgression and standing genetic variation
