A test of integration of plant traits that each are potential targets of insect-mediated selection; results suggest that independent evolutionary forces are likely to diversify different axes of plant chemistry without major constraints. https://t.co/R6b6IV6OxV

Really pleased to be representing @HarperAdamsUni at @SISF_2023 today!

Come talk to us about our insects and courses if you’re here! Plus you can build an insect out of modelling clay to earn your Children’s University badge🐞

Presented some of our fig genomics data in the #BES2022 conference tonight, bringing representation of @HarperAdamsUni and @MIBTP1 , with @simonsegar
(@danielsoutov your legend continues)

[Sotiria Boutsi @SBoutsi]

And here @simonsegar introducing phytochemistry across elevation in PNG at the Xth International Fig Symposium! Zoom does not compare to tropical China, but at least fig lovers had a chance to present their work on the fig- fig wasp system! #figs #figwasp

[Dr Heather Campbell-Miles @scienceheather]

Next up we have @SBoutsi talking to us online from INRAE in France about her PhD on speciation genomics in a #figwasp #pollination mutualism

[Oxford University Museum of Natural History @morethanadodo]

Many insects are important pollinators; one of these is the fabulous fig wasp. In this video, fig wasp researcher Sotiria Boutsi explains the amazing life cycle of the fig wasp, and why without it we wouldn’t have any figs!

Recruting now, a PhD focussing on coffee chemistry and pests! Building on MSc work funded by HAU in collaboration with Museums Kenya and the University of Embu: https://t.co/ujSbCRZaee
For farmers, biodiversity and a damn fine cup of coffee.

A few more - including FIGS! @simonsegar !
