The Society for Immune Polymorphism is organising a meeting on "The Evolution and Characterization of the Immune System". Abstract submission deadline 13 Sept. www.bprc.nl/en/sipconfer..#ImmunoSky#EvolSky
Check out our group's latest population genetics paper exploring how a tough little minnow has evolved to survive in a soup of pollution at the New Bedford Harbor Superfund site. doi.org/10.1093/jue/...#evosky#evolsky#evolution#evobio#evolbiol#popgen#ecoevo#molevol
... and now published in the Zoological Journal of the Linnean Society! doi.org/10.1093/zool...@inrae-france.bsky.social@dome-vienna.bsky.social#EvolSky
How do sex-biased genes evolve in a highly dimorphic bug with weird reproduction? Female-biased genes evolve quickly but less adaptively; male-biased genes evolve more slowly but with more positive selection in mealybugs. More in preprint: www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...#evolsky#evosky#moleco
What can an aquiculture pest like salmon lice teach us about molecular evolution? My co-author and I reanalyzed existing data to understand the roles of drift and adaption in sex chromosome evolution: academic.oup.com/evolut/advan...#evolsky#evosky#molevo

By analyzing co-evolution of mitochondrial and nuclear genomes across insect species, the authors uncover the evolutionary covariation of a group of non-mitochondrially targeted nuclear genes with mit...
