I don't use this platform much anymore, but I'm happy to share our work on sexual selection and the genomics of speciation in barn swallows. Thanks for reading and sharing, if of interest!

@snakeymama Hahaha!

@Greg_Owens Incredible, thank you! I always forget this behavior, and it always drives me crazy when I try to kick off an analysis after forgetting this behavior.

@PhloxELady @jacanamama Congratulations!!

@evilsmaug Totally read "for vertebrates" in the way Aragorn says "for Frodo" in the Return of the King film.

Hard co-sign! 🙌🏻

Gonna write a paper on this. PLEASE DON'T USE VCFTOOLS TO CALCULATE π. It is a random number generator, as the software assumes all bp that aren't SNPs are invariant (i.e. ignores missing data). This is especially bad in plant genomes, with abundant TEs where you can't map reads.

@nickcasewell @CSRIatLSTM Amazing!

@NicolasRohner Congrats!
