Genomics can be used for developing targeted SNP genotyping panels for estimating vulnerability to climate change and demonstrate a novel application of donor and recipient importance analysis for informing freshwater fisheries management 🐟

New paper! In a recent #TansleyReview @NewPhyt, we explore how plants are driving genomics-enabled advancements in invasion science. We also highlight challenges in our understanding of invasive species evolution that botanical research can help overcome.

"Yo derribé la estatua de Saddam y me alegré de la caída de su régimen pero ahora es peor, solo hay corrupción, saqueos y matanzas, antes habia 1 Saddam, ahora hay 1000. EEUU y Reino Unido nos destruyeron y nos han llevado a la Edad Media".
Kadhim al-Jabbouri, un mecánico iraquí que celebró la caida de Saddam Husein y destruyó su estatua en Bagdad, se lamenta de haber apoyado la invasión de EEUU que dejó a Irak en la Edad Media.
Lo mismo que pasó en Irak, ocurrió años después en Libia, hoy vuelve a suceder otra vez lo mismo en Siria... pero la población sigue tragando la propaganda de los mismos medios que llevan décadas justificando el destrozo y saqueo de paises en Oriente Medio.

#AHORA
Investigadora del CONICET, recibiendo un premio internacional, responsabilizó al director del CONICET presente en el acto, por el cientificio argentino: "...la ciencia argentina está siendo destruida. Uno de los responsables está acá con nosotros, el presidente del Conicet, Daniel Salamone, quien decidió despedir a cientos de compañeras y compañeros administrativos en todo el país, contra la voluntad de los directores de todos los CCT del país y de todo el directorio del organismo, está buscando la migración de recursos humanos que nos formamos en universidades públicas y está destruyendo el semillero de becarios que es el futuro del país".

📢 Article Alert:
Yield environment changes the ranking of soybean genotypes.
This study examines the relationship between yield and yield stability, exploring how genotype-by-environment interactions vary across soybean maturity groups.

Recent studies have revealed unexpected Y chromosome diversity and suggest that the Y may play an outsized role in evolution. @_Axeman_and I wrote this perspective for @EvolLetterswith a few suggestions and requests. academic.oup.com/evlett/adva… Images by

My entire team wrote an opinion paper about Common misconceptions of speciation research. Each section is written by 1-2 team members. The bulk of the writing happened during two writing retreats. It was a lot of fun and I am very happy with the result. academic.oup.com/evolinnean/…

My final two PhD papers are out in the world as pre-prints, if you are interested in plant evolutionary ecology, genomics, range expansion and/or reproductive assurance please take a look! Also part of team #mimuluspropaganda

Hoy que se habla tanto de quién paga lo público y está de moda el estúpido “con mis impuestos / con la mía” bien vale recordar esto de Martín Kohan que, entre tantas cosas que le viralizamos, creo que se nos pasó. Y es elemental, sí, pero hay que empezar por lo básico de nuevo.
