Nice news piece including our recent crop domestication/#pollinator health work, and work by @EmilyJBailes on potential breeding solutions. @chickpeaman @AgriBeeHealth @Beverley_CUBG
The bees don't do it: As we continue to breed crops for efficiency, we sacrifice their appeal to bees. https://t.co/Kyx71i2B5G

~6000 individual TRIzol RNA extractions completed! Watch this space for results on bee diseases from deep sequencing, pollinator networks and viral prevalence work. Big thanks to @OwenNW @VBSDoublet @sophiehedges_ Here's an emotive picture...

Oh dear...
Stop those pesky insects now! A friend passed on this email circular. Following the link to the product page and you'll see that Farmchem recomend this product for killing BEES, centipedes, ground beetles, spiders, crickets, earwigs etc. etc.. Dear God. https://t.co/4cqFDfwKP6

Really excited to have the first of my PhD papers out with @Beverley_CUBG ! We investigate the idea of breeding beans to have more bee friendly flowers, read my blog post on the project at: https://t.co/aHYeTyzlqI and the full paper at https://t.co/RUA2bTZX8f 🌸🐝

First blog post on my website. I talk about a nice follow up study of my PhD by @RichardCordaux and colleagues from Poitiers. Very nice work on a fascinating model of mitochondrial genome!

For my first post here, I would like to talk about a paper that made me travel a few years back in time, when I was a PhD student. I did my PhD at the University of Poitiers, studying the evolution…
