I believe this squirrel was unimpressed with me this AM along Putah Creek in Davis, CA

Another splendid endemic Greek Chaetocarabus is C. krueperi, which is limited in range to 2 mountain massifs in the East of the country. Females can attain lengths of 4cm+! This taxon is sometimes considered a subspecies of C. intricatus. Hopefully phylogenomics will answer this!

Supernova Excellent thread, thank you! I've been arguing with Biological Sciences faculty about human sex (and 5% of UC Davis now identifying as 'transgender') and was told I was hateful for my views.

NEW Publication: The promise and pitfalls of synteny in phylogenomics in PLOS Biology!!😄
Synteny—conserved genetic collinearity—is a (re)emerging marker for reconstructing the tree of life. Here, we outline the promise and potential pitfalls of synteny for phylogenetic inference

Good morning Putah Creek

Supernova Biological Sciences Jonathan Eisen Korben Dallas Spence Gary S. May If you are a scientist, please follow Jonathan Eisen and Korben Dallas Spence. I've been blocked, gee, I wonder why?

And some more

Our #phylogenomics study on the evolutionary relationships of birds 🦉🦃🦆🦜based on whole genome analysis of 363 species is now available as a preview article in nature nature.com/articles/s4158…

And why not another

👋 Hey Phylogenomics Twitter 👋
We’re adding another tool to the kit, meet:
pipesnake
An all-in-one raw-reads to species tree pipeline. Written in Nextflow and designed for portability and ease-of-use.

Well, I guess this is Calgon on steroids

Hahaha. Who wants to tell UC Davis Prof. Jonathan Eisen that the ACLU is actually a Men's Rights activist group now?

Congrats to Vic Victoria Martinez Mercado for defending her MS work that she did with me and Jun Wen Jun Wen on phylogenomics in Astragalus. Great job Vic!
