Animaux hybrides, le superpouvoir de l'évolution. On en parle à la @sciencecqfd.bsky.social aux côtés de @natachatriou.bsky.social à 16h.
Super nice podcast by Violaine Llaurens on the evolution of Morpho butterflies (in french!)

Réalisent-ils qu'ils sont les fossoyeurs de notre habitabilité & celle de nos enfants?
Colère face à tant d'irresponsabilité pour satisfaire des intérêts particuliers 😡

Fluctuating asymmetry(FA) is a common estimator of developmental stability. A genome-wide screen of deficiency lines that induce developmental instability in #Drosophila identifies new deficiencies that either enhance or reduce FA.

Introducing the campest katydid of all time. 🦄💅🏽👸💞 Why would this animal (Arota festae) have evolved this way, other than to look utterly fabulous? We have unleashed some (slightly whacky) thoughts, now out in @esajournals.bsky.social. Photo credit: @zekerowe.bsky.social doi.org/10.1002/ecy.... 1/n

Abstract. Butterfly wings exhibit a remarkable diversity of structural iridescent colours, yet the genetic regulation of iridescence remains poorly underst
Happy to see our new paper published today in @royalsocietypublishing.org B !
In it, we present an extensive work on the evolution of dispersal in a natural population of common lizards (Zootoca vivipara) 🦎

Deux espèces peuvent se reproduire et échanger des gènes, c’est l’hybridation. Le plus souvent, les descendants survivent mal ou restent stériles. Parfois, des gènes utiles se diffusent, et plus rarem...
