New preprint! 🌳🐛 We combined experimental and genomic methods to study local adaptation of winter moths to variation in oak budburst timing in Wytham Woods, UK. With @andreaestandia.bsky.social, Lea Beaupere, Ella Cole, and @sheldonbirds.bsky.social www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

Last week of winter moth trapping along the Phenoweb transect between Edinburgh and Inverness. We aim to study the spatial scale of local adaptation to oak phenology 🦋🌳🧬 with @rona-learmonth.bsky.social, @allyphillimore.bsky.social, @nilomr.bsky.social (and @sheldonbirds.bsky.social back in Oxford)
