Happy to share our deep dive into 30 years of #Wolbachia studies. So many patterns, gaps, and unexpected twists — plenty of room for new discoveries ahead.

Wolbachia-driven selective sweep in a range expanding insect species https://t.co/58RDXED0OZ New preprint from the #ISEE lab! With formal MSc student @JunchenDeng as 1st author 💪. We looked at #Wolbachia#biogeography in the damselfly #Ischnura elegans, a #RangeExpanding species
New preprint: @ehelegam did a forward genetic screen for over-proliferating Wolbachia. One mutant, wMelPop2, has an amplification of the Octomom region. Another mutant, wMelOctoless, a deletion of this same region. with @AnaSimaoC@lopezmadrigals. https://t.co/iu98KWOcCd
Successful Skype PhD defense by Matsapume Detcharoen @dmatted @uniinsbruck on #drosophila.
Congrats on your virus-safe doctorate, Matt!
Thanks to @jonna_kulmuni, Birgit Schlick-Steiner @Mol_Ecol & Peter Ladurner for making it possible.
Keep safe #SocialDistancing#FlattenTheCurve
New preprint out!
