Many thanks to Popgroup and Heredity for this opportunity to chat about our research.

Now online! In this review, we cover four major topics on butterflies and moths: their evolutionary history and diversification dynamics, genomics, global diversity patterns, and conservation 🦋🌏 (1/8) @natrevbiodiv.nature.com www.nature.com/articles/s44...

🧬We are launching STRiVE, a @eseb.bsky.social Special Topic Network on the evolutionary role of structural genomic variation. 🗓️Std: 29/04: Online seminar w/ L. Rieseberg 8-10/07: Kick-off in Porto Join us: structuralvariantsstn.github.io #Evolution #Genomics #StructuralVariants #Biology #PopGen

CALL FOR PAPERS 📣 Special Issue: #GenomeArchitecture and #Evolution, organised by @eseb.bsky.social STN "STRiVE": Find out more here: tinyurl.com/2uza525c @ruifaria.bsky.social @kaybiodiversity.bsky.social @clairemerot.bsky.social @petrnguyen.bsky.social @aruizherrera.bsky.social

Responsible publication of your research! To help you do this @nicolasgaltier.bsky.social and coauthors have put together a handy database of academia-friendly journals, DAFNEE. You can read about it in their article recently published in @jevbio.bsky.social: doi.org/10.1093/jeb/...

A new preprint from the lab, with postdoc @deboraycb.bsky.social and collaborators @aidaandres.bsky.social and Tim Connallon: “Characterising the detectable and invisible fractions of genomic loci under balancing selection” www.biorxiv.org/content/10.6...

(1/2) The preprint of our perspective on genetic estimates of relatedness in animal populations is out! Big Congratulations to Annika! doi.org/10.32942/X28... A systematic review of 2,861 articles shows that, even in 2025, 75% of such studies use microsatellites. And most use only a few! #PopGen

Meiotic drive has long been considered as a genetic curiosity. Genomic "footprints" suggest otherwise. Check out our new review doi.org/10.1093/molb..., a cross-taxa synthesis arguing that recurrent drive is a pervasive and underappreciated force in genome evolution.

'Ancient stickleback genomes reveal the early stages of parallel adaptation' - now published online in Evolution @journal-evo.bsky.social‬

We hope this little guide and review of the recent literature on SVs will be useful for the community in #ecology #evolution #genomics #PopGen. Great lead by Kat!!

Join us in Brittany? One week left to apply for this postdoc position deciphering the mysteries of inbreeding depression...

New review from @gokcumenlab.bsky.social led by Petar Pajic on VNTRs. If you’re interested in VNTRs, this is a very nice synthesis. academic.oup.com/gbe/article/...

Hybridization and introgression are major evolutionary processes. Since the 1940s, the prevailing view has been that they shape plants far more than animals. In our new study (www.science.org/doi/10.1126/... ), we find the opposite: animals exchange genes more, and for longer, than plants

It is with joy and exhaustion I'd like to announce the release of Harpy v2 🎆. What's different? Uh, almost everything. The changelog is so long that even I don't want to read it. BUT. IT WORKS WITH WGS DATA. AND MOST LINKED READ TECH. it just works 🙂 github.com/pdimens/harpy

10 more days to send your abstract to ESEB 2025 in Barcelona @eseb.bsky.social (deadline 05/05/2025).

Abstracts for @eseb2025.bsky.social due next week! Milk, ejaculates, skin secretions, regurgitate, microbes ...our symposium will have it all, with invited speakers @berasymbionts.bsky.social and @jennyperry.bsky.social ...and you? Organised w/ @joriskoene.bsky.social and @wolfnerlab.bsky.social

Harpy v2.0 is almost across the finish line, and I wrote a lil' post about what linked-read sequencing actually is and how we evaluate the data differently than standard short-read data. It's a quick and easy read (with pictures!), highly recommend 🤓 #PopGen pdimens.github.io/harpy/blog/l...

A few days left to send your abstract to #eseb2025 ! If you are interested any facet of genomic architecture and how it is is involved in the evolution of biodiversity, please consider our symposium. #architecture #biodiversity #genomics #evolution #SV

New preprint! We investigated the evolution of supergenes and mechanisms underlying distyly in Linum species that diverged ca 33 Mya. 1/8 bsky.app/profile/bior...
