Happy Friday - our paper on the role of range size, population fluctuation and introgression in determining genetic diversity in Gehyra geckos is online in early view @journal_evo, led by my fabulous student Ching Ching Lau - her first first-author paper! academic.oup.com/evolut/adva…
Evolution Digests are short articles summarizing original research in Evolution and placing it in a larger context, making the work more accessible to those outside the study's specific subfield. Learn how to submit a Digest here: sites.duke.edu/evodigests/

The Rhinocryptidae radiation is possibly one of the most enigmatic; our new study shows the importance of song as a signal in this group of mountain-loving birds. Nice collab with Paola Laiolo @_IMIB_ out in "Evolution" @sse_evolution . Picture: N Athanas academic.oup.com/evolut/adva…

Acknowledgements: @WTF_R_species for helpful edits/comments, as well as @helkekat and Nawab Shah @OUPAcademic for sending the book. While I single out my PI from my last postdoc, many of the citations can serve as Easter Eggs to others who I’ve learned from. Thank you all!

In between I discuss the essential concepts and results of each chapter, which occupies the bulk of the review, and critically note some absences. If any of the topics present are of interest to you, give the book itself a read! academic.oup.com/book/58908?…

I start by discussing the idea of unifying evolutionary genomics, a stated goal of the book, and evaluate Gu’s contributions to this goal, which are quite impressive! doi.org/10.1093/evolut/qpaf0…

Excited to announce I have a review of Xun Gu’s new book “Statistical Analysis of Molecular and Genomic Evolution” out now in @journal_evo ! Advance article linked below in thread 👇

Our (@mei_newt, Corbin Jones, & me) #Meiosis, Recombination & Evolution of Sex class @UNC_Biology loved talking w/ Christoph Haag @CNRS @umontpellier about his lab’s @journal_evo paper on recombination and asexuality in #Daphnia plus some unpublished work: doi.org/10.1093/evolut/qpad1…

Cool Science: Fascinating and important new paper "Allometric scaling of somatic mutation and epimutation rates ..." by Frank Johannes in
@journal_evo
. He shows that annual somatic (epi)mutation rates are inversely related to lifespan #Genetics #EvolBiol academic.oup.com/evolut/arti…

This project was only possible with the guidance of Dr. Mike Burns, @PeterWainwrig15, @fishwright3, and an amazing team of undergraduate assistants Bernice Yin, Sam Hodges-Lisk, and @HBivittatus. Typeset version will be available in a few days! Feel free to reach out for a copy.

Evolutionary integration is generally weakened with the evolution of novel swimming modes. Suggesting that functional expansion may be facilitated by decoupling of the fins.

Super proud of my 2nd PhD paper exploring shifts in evo. integration among reef fish fins with expansions in locomotor modes, out now in Evolution. Within modes there is much diversity in fin shape and weak connections between form and function. doi.org/10.1093/evolut/qpae1…
