I don't use this platform much anymore, but I'm happy to share our work on sexual selection and the genomics of speciation in barn swallows. Thanks for reading and sharing, if of interest!.

Hard co-sign! 🙌🏻.
Gonna write a paper on this. PLEASE DON'T USE VCFTOOLS TO CALCULATE π. It is a random number generator, as the software assumes all bp that aren't SNPs are invariant (i.e. ignores missing data). This is especially bad in plant genomes, with abundant TEs where you can't map reads.

So fun to chat with Kory about science + music - check out the episode!.
Episode 8: Welcome @Sternarchella! We chat with Kory about his research on the evolution of phenotypic diversity, crazy fish skulls, conducting field work all over the world, and how rap + Seinfeld = true art! 🐟🎶💀 .

Amazing work!.
Ready to share this preprint about the basis of a shift from egg-laying to live-birth in Littorina. We find evidence for live-bearer specific sweeps at many loci, overlapping with genes that are differential expressed btwn reproductive systems. pls share!.
