As I have a few followers now I figure I could post about some recent papers: @henrylnorth.bsky.social analysed sequence data from @theswordlab.bsky.social for North American Helicoverpa zea - we found just two individuals from 400 with introgressed armigera allele for insecticide resistance

I am loving the @evolletters.bsky.social cover by G. Moggioli. This issue has 3 articles about the Darwin-Bateman paradigm. Lehtonen & Parker doi.org/10.1093/evle... provide theory, w/ comments by @timjanicke.bsky.social doi.org/10.1093/evle... and Mokos et al. doi.org/10.1093/evle...

We have a postdoc position available in the lab on post-copulatory barriers in hybridizing crickets. We have genomic data ready to be analyzed and crickets ready for experiments. This is a great collaborative group and a study system with a lot of potential for new projects. Join us!

👀 Enjoyed this perspective on the evolution of human commensalism! We need to quantify the degree to which species have evolved/adapted to anthropo environs and clearly define those environs. Plus I learned a neat new word: "synurbic". #drosophila would be great models for some of this!

My entire team wrote an opinion paper about Common misconceptions of speciation research. Each section is written by 1-2 team members. The bulk of the writing happened during two writing retreats. It was a lot of fun and I am very happy with the result. academic.oup.com/evolinnean/a...
