Revised evolutionary relationships within Brachycera and the early origin of bicoid in flies
Mulhair et al. uncover a functional bicoid in non-cyclorrhaphan flies, pushing the
gene's origin back by ∼20 million years. Reassessing the Diptera phylogeny using the
largest dataset to date permits ...
Latest work out today in @currentbiology.bsky.social
We find the fly development gene bicoid is much older than previously thought (~20 million yrs older!) 🪰🧬
To pinpoint its origins we tackled the Diptera phylogeny, providing some resolution (many open questions remain).

La Flotilla tenía varios objetivos: volver a ejercitar el músculo de la sociedad civil, poner el bloqueo ilegal de Israel en el centro del debate público internacional, sentar un precedente (el Mikeno llegó a aguas gazatíes) que inspire más acciones futuras.
Es un catalizador. Y está funcionando.

☕️ Your morning coffee depends on pollinators more than you might think.
Every day, the world savours more than 2 billion cups of coffee. Yet this daily ritual relies on a hidden workforce: pollinators. Bees, butterflies and countless others ensure that coffee blossoms fulfil their potential.

To celebrate the genomes for 1,000 (!) species of Lepidoptera in Europe, Project Psyche has released a preprint outlining our ambitions to jointly sequence & leverage genomes of all 11,000 species in Europe to propel science, conservation & society.
This was a joy to write together as a community!

Punks Against Apartheid Points of Unity 2024/25
In whatever our capacity as artists and musicians, we pledge to respect the 2005 call for Boycott, Divestment, and Sanctions (BDS) against the state of Israel, and hereby endorse the following points of unity:
1. We, Punks Against Apartheid, exist to foment greater solidarity between the global punk community and the struggle for Palestinian liberation.
2. We honor the call for Boycott, Divestment, and Sanctions (BDS) in its entirety. We will not play concerts or speak at events in Israel or in any other country that are in violation of Palestinian civil society’s call for cultural boycott.
3. We will not perform, exhibit or otherwise participate in events which deceptively suggest symmetry or shared responsibility between “both sides” for Israel’s ongoing colonial oppression of the Palestinian people and its system of apartheid.
4. We seek, wherever possible, to use our art, music and expression to both educate the wider public and provide real, meaningful solidarity to the cause of Palestinian liberation. This includes (but is not limited to) uplifting the three main demands of the original BDS call, the thawabit, and further demands that may emerge from Palestinian civil and political consensus.
5. We do not prescribe what Palestinian liberation will look like. We nonetheless uphold the Palestinian peoples' inalienable right to self-determination and resistance as enshrined in international law.
6. We pledge to uphold the cultural boycott of the Israeli state until Palestinian liberation has been secured and the BDS movement is asked to stand down.
