. and we got recommended in PCI Evol Biol! Check out our revised version with great add-ons by @Phylogenetrips. Main THM: purifying selection is effective even at rather small pop size on ca. half of the genes due to high gene exp = high sel coef.
Our paper exploring gene expression adaptive responses in the Emperor penguin (EP)🧊🇦🇶🐧is out on bioRxiv! EPs breed in the harsh, dark Antarctic winters at temps <-45C! We identify genes involved in temperature homeostasis, fasting, and energy metabolism
