I am happy to announce the launch of a new Arabidopsis genomics resource! Check out arabidopsislyrata.org Now you can easily look at the natural genetic variation across the entire species range of A. lyrata and A. arenosa.

Up to what degree of interspecific genetic distance is it possible to form viable and fertile hybrids? A strange species of paramecium breaks the record:

Do you like your learned society and what it does for you and your research community? Then publish in their journal!

This paper by @nicolasgaltier.bsky.social & Co shows that it will only do good, and comes with a handy database of academy-friendly journals. 👇

Responsible publication of your research!

To help you do this @nicolasgaltier.bsky.social and coauthors have put together a handy database of academia-friendly journals, DAFNEE. You can read about it in their article recently published in @jevbio.bsky.social:

#popGroup59 is starting now at Lille. Delighted to see the conference come to fruition !

I didn't know about this challenge, it's a really fun initiative! Thanks for organizing events like this !

And then I see Leonie's message...

Repeated Adaptive Introgression at a Gene under Multiallelic Balancing Selection Author Summary The role of natural selection in promoting or preventing genomic divergence between nascent species remains highly debated. As long as reproductive barriers remain incomplete, genetic m...

Perhaps I am seeing your message too late, and what's more, I am coming to you with what may be a very unusual case... journals.plos.org/plosgenetics...

​Balancing selection is a fascinating process: malaria resistance, self-incompatibility,etc. Yet, countless examples remain hidden in genomes!
​If this question intrigues you, the project led by Laure Segurel and Violaine Llaurens (Paris + Lyon) is perfect! urlr.me/Huj2De

Looking forward to the next POPGROUP meeting ? Still a few more days for registration.

We left the US and moved to France Hello readers, I got big updates! Some of you already know this, but it’s getting more real and more official every month: my family and I have left the US and moved to France! A few months ago I q…

I started a new job in Montpellier, France!
Happy about new opportunities, sad about the state of things in the US.

Sexual selection and speciation: a meta-analysis of comparative studies Abstract. Understanding the drivers of biodiversity is a central goal in evolutionary biology. In particular, sexual selection has long been proposed as a

Does #SexualSelection fuel #Speciation?

Our new #meta-analysis of comparative studies finds support for a positive relationship, but the rather moderate global effect suggests it’s not necessarily a dominant force.

Wonderful day ending with @couplingdmi.bsky.social who spoke about dock mussels and how anthropogenic hybridization altered marine habitats

Thanks, now I want to go diving in commercial ports in Brittany to see them

What a nice start and amazing first day of Jacques Monod conference on bridging the micro macroevolution gap #cjm25 plenty of fascinating talks and posters

Didn't react quickly enough to illustrate all of them, just catch a few

Just took my breakfast at the #cjm25 speciation conference and around me in a 50m2 breakfast room were seated Nick Barton, Craig Moritz, Amaury Lambert, Maud tenaillon, Ludovic Orlando, Stuart Baird, John Welch, Daniel Matute etc... This density of 🤯🤯🤯 !

What a nice start to the Jacques Monod conference #cjm25 on speciation in Roscoff, Britany. What an inspiring lineup of talks and scientists. Even the weather is remarkably welcoming, for now, at least. 🤩

Arrived at Roscoff in Brittany for the conference Jacques Monod on #speciation. What a view ! Do we have a hashtag? #cjm25? First plenary lecture was tonight on our (in)hability to predict diversification rates from microevolutionary processes.

Very happy to announce that the next POPGROUP meeting will take place in Lille on 7-9 January !

Exciting news!
The next #PopGroup meeting will take place in Lille 🍟, France, 7–9 January 2026 – just 1 hour by train from London, Brussels, and Paris.

This year, PopGroup will also host ALPHY, the annual meeting of Evolutionary Genomics.
