It was an honour to work with Naomi Langmore, Alicia Grealy and the whole team on this paper. Collections are research infrastructure @EcoEvo_ANU @MuseumGenomics

New paper out today on the cover of Science!!! Parasitic cuckoos and their hosts are locked in an evolutionary arms-race that is driving speciation. Biological collections can answer big scientific questions – in this case, how do new species form? @CSIRO @MuseumGenomics

The update for IRscope visualising plastid IR junction sites is finally here. Congrats to Carmen and Bernardo (Master and PhD students) for the hard work done creating IRplus. @luomus @HiLIFE_helsinki @MuseumGenomics

Did you publish a museum genomics investigation before 2022? If so, consider submitting the DOI at https://t.co/bFvOWZM31l to add it to a community bibliography of museum genomics research! 🪱 🍁

Mouse deer taxonomy is very unstable #IMC13 @marcuschua evaluated this number with museomics

Museomics are necessary to resolve difficult groups like Peromyscus @mekisus @shrewangel #IMC13

[Marcus Chua @marcuschua]

Taxonomy: Museomics reveal new insights into systematics of the subfamily Neotominae—@mekisus

- Neotominae highly specious, includes diverse but taxonomically unresolved deer mice
- Strong support for 5 new proposed genera with UCE + mtDNA
- Peromyscus to be monophyletic

Looking foward for #SMBE2023 where I will be presenting my poster about Finnish butterflies🦋, climate change, genetic diversity and museomics on Monday from 18:00 at San Paolo cloisters. Feel free to stop by, if you want to know more 😇

博物館標本をシーケンスするのはmuseomicsそのもの #museomejp

[統合進化科学研究センター SOKENDAI @SOKENDAI_ESB]

70年前の博物館標本からDNAの抽出をしました。

DNAの平均の断片の長さが60bp以下なので、PCRの鋳型に使うのは無理そうです。
これが「博物館標本からDNAはとれない」と言われていた理由でしょう。

でも、次世代シークエンスなら全ゲノム配列決定も大丈夫！

@wareslab Think a natural history museum would b interested? Historically, would b if this was collection of specimens but #MuseumGenomics is growing & some collections may b excited 2 acquire this. If they r worried bout curation costs, random/representative subset could be useful later.

Time for #ConservationGenetics lightning talks. Matt Lott with a speed update on koala genomics, museum collections, climate change and conservation #ICG2023

Systematics: Museum genomics & morphology illuminate evolutionary history & diversity of Oriental Giant Squirrels—@ArloHinckley

- Giant 🐿️ exist—the size of cats, but taxonomy is unstable
- At least 2 distinct lineages each in bicolored and cream-coloured giant squirrel

In case X dies: we will be hiring 3 postdocs in the next year to work on an @NSF-funded project: with me @NAU, Frank Burbrink @AMNH and Tiago Simões @Princeton. Ads to come but DM me if you're into squamates, museums, phylogenetics, comparative genomics and phenotypic evolution!
