Paper out: Is there #hybridisation across #ploidy levels in #parasitic eyebrights? Thanks to @alex_twyford and @Euphrasiologist for letting me do the demographic modelling https://doi.org/10.1002/ajb2.16100 🌱🧬

New article recommended at PCI Evolutionary Biology this morning!

Here’s my long postponed #introduction!

I’m a Swiss PhD student at Trent University - Canada, working on the #Evolution of two North American #deer species through #bioinformatic analyses of #hybridisation #Demography and #ancientDNA.

I am also interested in #Genomics of speciation, extinction, adaptation, #PopGen etc… 🦌 🧬

When you work in a #Botanic garden and can't figure out the species... "I'm sure it's an hybrid" #oak #genetics #hybridisation

@NaturalSelection

I agree.

The only thing I would have added is a summarising doodle, a cactus metaphor (#OldPost by D. Morrison: Tree metaphors and mathematical trees: https://phylonetworks.blogspot.com/2018/02/tree-metaphors-and-mathematical-trees.html)

Reds = maternal lineages (plastomes); blue = nucleomes, (speciation history), stippled arrows = "chloroplast captures" in #phylogenetics but is in fact hostile takeover via asymmetric #introgression or #hybridisation followed by backcrossing with one parent only.
