Biogeographical costs and opportunities of thermal adaptation

What determines where species occur and where they do not? Brightly et al. showed that cold-origin lineages are less likely to form amphitropical distributions. This raises questions about the biogeog...

Looking back to a wonderful week of teaching biodiversity genomics in Mendoza, Argentina. The participants from 8 South and Central American countries learned the basics of biodiversity genomics from assessing data quality to performing population and comparative genomics analysis.
