The flagship paper from the amazing Manakin Research Coordination Network is finally published! The time I spent with these people was the most rewarding part of my PhD.
Wherein we developed a new phylogenetic method to demonstrate well-supported linkages between diet, plumage, and breeding system, and further linked all of this to a bevy of research on taste receptors, fruit toxins, digestion, and genetics in manakins. Press release: www.mpg.de/26796412/evo...
