Our new preprint is out: Introgression dynamics of-sex linked chromosomal inversions shapes the Malawi cichlid adaptive radiation https://t.co/dTjPpBQZcz
biorxiv.org
Chromosomal inversions contribute to adaptive speciation by linking co-adapted alleles. Querying 1,375 genomes of the species-rich Malawi cichlid fish radiation, we discovered five large inversions...

Grateful for the warm welcome by the biology students of Tadulako University, Palu. We kick off our field trip in Sulawesi by presenting our research on evolutionary genomics of the sailfin silverside fishes of the Malili lakes.

Honnoured that my group is acknowledged for our contributions to the @erga_biodiv pilot. Great efforts by @DiedericksGen @hgleitao and @VIBLifeSciences
Hannes @HannesSvardal, leader of the Svardal Group @UAntwerpen @biominaBE, shares that the ERGA Pilot was an opportunity to learn about European diversity at all levels: molecular, human and even postal 📬

Our new group twitter account is online. Things posted might correlate with the views of someone in the group at a certain point in time, unless it is sarcasm, then they might anticorrelate with the views of at least someone in the group ...
Hi, we're the Svardal Group based at @UAntwerp, a research group interested in using genome sequencing data to uncover the evolutionary past of a variety of organisms, including cichlid fish, clingfish, lizards, cats and more! Give us a follow for updates on our research 🧬
