First paper from #TanguyMuller, PhD student in @cbgpmontpellier.bsky.social: Population genomics of incipient allochronic divergence in an infamous moth. #WGS #demography #inbreeding #mutation-load #genome-scan onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/...

We set out to investigate polygenic footprints of altitude adaptation in a moth species, but instead we uncovered a major selective sweep at genes often associated with insecticide resistance @prrnhd.bsky.social @schifanoalexandre.bsky.social @mgda76.bsky.social @cbgpmontpellier.bsky.social

Congrats Sarah, @mafnoor.bsky.social, and team on such a cool paper!

In 2020, O Gaggiotti, J Goudet and I showed that Qst-Fst comparison was uncalibrated with high population structure. During her PhD with us, Isa do O developed LogAV: a method that accounts for any population structure while testing for local adaptation : journals.plos.org/plosgenetics...

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

Still possible to apply to this #post-doc position at CESAB #Montpellier. Application closing date: September 15th 2025 (12:00 PM CET) How taking intraspecific diversity and evolutionary processes into account in translocation-based programs. Please share widely #PopGen #NbS #Biodiversity

Two papers in today's issue of @nature.com ‬: 1) we assemble 65 genomes to near completion, including centromeres and the MHC. tinyurl.com/3huhax6w. 2) we sequence 1,019 genomes from the 1kGP with long reads, revealing SVs down to low allele frequencies tinyurl.com/wbx3we9x.

A PhD position in plant evolutionary genomics is available at Univ.Vienna 🇦🇹. Focus: genomic drivers underlying the diversification of Tillandsia 😍. Funded by a project between France & Austria (ANR-FWF project RadiaSpe). Come join the team! More information: thibaultleroyfr.github.io/pdf/Univie_R...

🚀 A new version of BayPass (v3.0) is now available for GEA/pGWAS analyses. This update brings support for Genotype-Likelihood data, hybrid datasets (allele counts and/or Pool-Seq and/or GL), or local-score computation (see updated manual). 🔗 forgemia.inra.fr/mathieu.gaut... #BayPass #popgen
