🧬A recent PNAS study reveals that the hybridization between the Balearic shearwater (Puffinus mauretanicus) and the Mediterranean shearwater (Puffinus yelkouan) has been key to maintain the genetic diversity and evolutionary capacity of this critically endangered seabird 1/2 doi.org/10.1073/pnas...

La hibridació entre espècies ha estat decisiva per a la supervivència de l’ocell marí més amenaçat d’Europa

🧬 Aquest estudi liderat per @geneticsub.bsky.social @irbio-ub.bsky.social, ha estat possible gràcies al 1r #referencegenome seqüenciat en el marc del CBP @riutortlab.bsky.social @jrozasub.bsky.social 💪 Al CBP seguirem treballant per posar la genòmica al servei de la biodiversitat.

A third paper comes out. I want to stress that sequencing and annnotating the complete genome of the Balearic shearwater, under the umbrella of the @catbiogenoma.bsky.social, has been key to develope this work. Showing how the efforts of the @ebpgenome.bsky.social will help biodiversity conservation

1/10 We are thrilled to announce that our new paper on conservation genomics of the Balearic shearwater has just been published online at @pnas.org! www.pnas.org/doi/10.1073/...

We are eagerly waiting to see you back home at the @biologiaub.bsky.social faculty @ub.edu ! 🎉🎊
