Great to see this study by @sam-deakin.bsky.social and Anita Michalak published in Evolutionary Applications. Using genomic data from >750 caribou and hierarchical structure analyses, we show that genetic clusters do not align with current conservation units in western Canada doi.org/10.1111/eva....

Study shows size-selective harvesting pushes guppies to evolve faster life histories (earlier maturation, higher fecundity). This was done over 10 years, using 14+ traits. This hints at anthropogenic stressors that affect large individuals in nature more than small ones 🐟

Can genomic offsets help future-proof selective breeding?
In this @evolappjournal.bsky.social perspective, we present a practical roadmap for translating evolutionary genomics into climate-resilient agriculture and aquaculture.
