New paper in @EvolLetters (open access: https://t.co/DzdX1njad7). Using dwarf kingfishers as a model, we believe we've constructed the most complete and explicit published framework explaining the underlying mechanistic causes of the classic "paradox of the great speciators".
This is way late, but I just realized I never gave any love to my and @carriewessi's most recent publication, so that's what this is 😅

Do @L_DBall and I happen to know anyone in Baton Rouge or St. Louis with access to the equipment needed to do headspace analysis of floral volatiles? One of Laymon's study species is blooming at @mobotgarden for the first time and we want to sample!
Check out triangulaR, my new R package for building triangle plots! I explore how sample size of parental pops and allele frequency difference thresholds influence hybrid index and interclass heterozygosity estimates, see more here:

First pre-print posted for @omys_omics out of KU!! 🎉 Best practices in identifying hybrids and hybrid classes using triangle plots, and showcasing the new R package:

Happy to share a new publication @BioInvasions using genomic data to reveal the sources of introduced white-eye populations in Hawaii and southern California. We show that these introduced pops are totally independent, with no evidence of admixture https://t.co/DPcFCtiHgW
Cephalopods are an incredible clade of animals and much of their biology is a mystery. I'm thrilled to share our new preprint, led by @gabcoffing, describing an amazing discovery--ZZ/ZO karyotypes in cephs and the oldest sex chromsome found to date

Thrilled to have been part of this huge collaborative effort led by @paspassionate, Sonal Singhal & @UMich Dan Rabosky. The team includes researchers from 4 continents & highlights the value of #museumcollections

We are excited to soon welcome the next cohort of scholars into the LAGNiAppE program here at LSU!
This is SUCH a great opportunity for recent graduates interested in exploring a career in scientific research.
Apply today! Deadline is March 3rd.
Excited to share the first paper from my postdoc, using phylogenomics to uncover dynamic genome evolution in Rumex! Featuring @JoannaRifkin, @bichoudhury, @bmsacchi, @imengyuan, @stepheniwright, and others not on the site.

A new article by Ramírez-Portilla & Quattrini has been published in the SSB Bulletin https://t.co/l74477u3Q2. It synthesizes recent work in species delimitation and argues that researchers consider the speciation process when they delimit species. @systbiol
Our study is now in print! We examined genetic divergence between bee- vs. hummingbird-pollinated populations of #penstemon and find they're all mixed up ... surprisingly few loci distinguish the two types!
The Department of Genetics has launched the 2024 Faculty Recruitment initiative! Please share this information with those who may be interested in joining our phenomenal community!
I’ve wished I could say this for years now, to so many great people, but hit me up this year! We have an amazing HPC, great labs @nau, and I’ve got lots of NSF funding to sequence vertebrate genomes! Strike while the iron is hot! https://t.co/qYpR8sJe2i
Our recent paper describing mitonuclear discordance in a rapid radiation of Todiramphus kingfishers is now featured on the cover of @molecology! Check it out here: https://t.co/E9pJpdUGEF alongside a series of great genomics papers included in this issue https://t.co/MbpiL7SkwN
