🌞 Summer means sampling season for many members of #ERGA & @BioGenEurope !
The #genome of Rhagades pruni will aid in tracking habitat fragmentation's impact on #GeneticDiversity and #PopulationStructure. Vital for its conservation across Europe

Wenn das ganze mal den Bach runtergeht, dann nicht weil wir keine pseudokontrollierbare Gentechnik verwenden sondern weltweit auf eine einzige Sorte (Cavendish) setzen.
Bitte nicht unreflektiert Gentech Propaganda vertröten 🙏

April is #CitizenScienceMonth!
A good opportunity to acknowledge our CS committee's efforts to connect the world of #reference #genomes with their important applications to #citizens and #society
Curious to learn more about the #ERGA #CitizenScience activities? 💡 Learn more: http://bit.ly/3UUSvLS
One of the committee's goals is to gather insights on #citizen perception of #genomics and the importance of #geneticdiversity
Can you help us answer this question?👉 http://bit.ly/3LkB97O

We’re headed to #AGBTAg23 in San Antonio, Texas from 27-29 March. What we bring to the table: our #machinelearning technology #xSeedScore for more breeding efficiency and genetic gain for today’s and future climates. Let's connect at AGBT Ag! 🤗

Some #FoodForThought from the #researchpaper linked above💡💡💡
“Importantly, in my view, the term ‘genetically similar to’ also helps to avoid the assumption of homogeneity within labels; ‘similar to’ does not imply ‘same as’. Similarity-based sample descriptors also move us some way to acknowledging the continuous nature of #geneticvariation across #humangroups in our sample descriptions. I am more genetically similar to some samples than I am to others, but that does not imply that there are natural groupings. Nor do similarity-based labels imply how I, as an individual, might choose to identify or what distribution of environments I might experience. For example, a person may be genetically similar to 1000 #Genomes samples labeled Southern Asian, yet in itself this similarity does not identify them as Southern Asian, whereas stating that a person has ‘Southern Asian #geneticancestry ’ comes much closer to making that linkage in people’s minds.
Working out the #genealogicalhistory of individuals and of groups of people from around the world is a fascinating area of research, but it should not be the day job of the majority of researchers in the field of #humangenetics , who instead need accurate sample descriptors of current day #geneticdiversity that aid clear communication.”

Checking the @UNBiodiversity Aichi Target tool, in my naive interpretation, it looks like richer countries like US and EU have lagged behind in the #geneticdiversity 2010-2020 targets compared to many other countries with higher diversity

#EcologyMetz2022 Thanks to Jordi Cortina Segarra for presenting the ambitious goals, societal importance and challenges of #EcologicalRestoration.
Good to hear that #GeneticDiversity is also somewhere in the map! You always stumble on something if you dig into it. We stumbled on a hotspot of hybridization. More on this in my talk this afternoon in room 1!
