Els escorpins, veritables fòssils vivents, han sigut animals desconeguts i temuts pel seu verí. Hi ha qui els cria, com a negoci lucratiu per a obtenir aquest verí preuat. I algunes espècies corren perill d'extinció 👇👇👇

¿Sabías que cada copa de Cabernet Sauvignon es el clon de un clon de una vid original del siglo XVII? 🍷 La experta en genética @gmarfanyn.bsky.social (@geneticsub.bsky.social, @ub.edu) nos lo explica:

Two papers in a row. We are happy to share our two recent publications. One dealing with the cryptic biodiversity of a terrestrial planarian in the Brazilian Atlantic Forest: doi.org/10.1093/zool.... @geneticsub.bsky.social @irbio-ub.bsky.social @martaalvarez.bsky.social @zoojlinnsoc.bsky.social

The second shows the first case of interspecific hybridisation of freshwater planarians using genomic data. The diversity of species on the island of Corsica is also shown to be higher than previously thought. www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti... @geneticsub.bsky.social @irbio-ub.bsky.social
