The last results of my Ph.D. are now available as a preprint. In this project, we studied the evolution of distyly breakdown in Linum trigynum (with @tanjaslotte , @marcofraca & others).

Happy to share our findings on the forces governing the evolution of transposable elements in B. distachyon: https://t.co/2N5qSCDAox
Thanks to all co-authors!

@tanjaslotte Congratulations!!

[Tanja Slotte @tanjaslotte]

If you are interested in this fellowship or know someone who might be, there is still time to apply - we are just getting started processing applications. Feel free to contact me for informal questions about the project and the fellowship.

Our paper “Controlling for variable transposition rate with an age-adjusted site frequency spectrum” is now published in GBE. https://t.co/kcbTNmbSq2
Thanks to @evolMM , @mcstitzer and @jrossibarra for your help during this project.

How does mating system shape the evolution of genes involved in pollen competition? We studied genomic signatures of sexual selection on pollen expressed-genes in A. alpina populations w varying mating system. Advance access: @MolBioEvol @OfficialSMBE https://t.co/SRGo3os56T 1/3.
