🐈🧬I recently presented the preliminary results of my first PhD chapter at Biología Investiga 2025, the scientific #outreach days organized by the @unisevilla.bsky.social

A great space for scientific exchange within the Faculty of Biology.

A mosaic of modular variation at a single gene underpins convergent plumage coloration The reshuffling of genomic variation from multiple origins is an important contributor to phenotypic diversification, yet insights into the evolutionary trajectories of this combinatorial process and ...

1/9 New in @science.org www.science.org/doi/10.1126/science.ado8005
How does genetic architecture constrain evolutionary trajectories? To address this question, we inferred the genetic architecture of convergent plumage coloration and its evolutionary history in wheatears.

Reference genome choice compromises population genetic analyses Using a species-specific reference genome significantly improves the accuracy of population genetic analyses, as exemplified by mapping gray fox sequence data to genomes of several canid species. Mapp...

Why sequence all vertebrate genomes? 🧬
💡 Vertebrate genomes can help answer complex questions — for example: how did speech evolve, and which genes govern longevity and cancer resistance in long-lived species like the Blue Whale?

@ebdonana.bsky.social #PhD students at #ESEB2025🧬

We shared research on bird seed dispersal, mosquito pop genomics, and Iberian lynx phylogenomics & conservation genetics.

Thank you for a wonderful congress filled with new connections and inspiring discussions.

➡️ Nice experience sharing some results about the alien plant Cotula coronopifolia in Europe at #ESEB2025
🌱🧬

➡️ We found an unusual genetic structure shaped by selfing, introduction history and waterbirds 🦆

➡️ Great discussions and valuable feedback to shape our next steps ✅
