Diploid origins and early genome stabilization in the allotetraploid Arabidopsis suecica Burns et al. [email protected] [email protected] nph.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/...

@alisondawnscott.bsky.social et al. use genome data from >400 Arabidopsis lyrata sampled across Eurasia to show it as the most polyploid-rich species complex in Arabidopsis, with multiple origins of autotetraploidy. 🔗 doi.org/10.1093/molbev/msaf153 #evobio #molbio #PlantSky

1/ 🚨 My first PhD preprint is out on bioRxiv! We show how tiny mutations—point mutations and kb-level indels—can shape the massive structure of Arabidopsis centromeres. 📄 Read it here: doi.org/10.1101/2025... 🧵 A short thread 👇

Can’t believe that was my last PhD retreat. It was fun showing off my genomes — but finishing a PhD? I’m not ready.

Cologne Spring Meeting was so much fun. I was happy to see everyone and finally present some progress on North American Arabidopsis lyrata selfers.
