2.5-year postdoc & 3-year PhD in plant conservation genomics at Macquarie University in Sydney, Australia. We are using genomics & field experiments to understand dispersal, admixture and seedling performance in native seed orchards. PhD (DM) for Postdoc: seek.com.au/job/73819857

🎓A PhD position is available in our lab in Toulouse, France, for a project at the interface between metagenomics and population genomics Come join us for this "WaHoO-Gen" project (Wax and Honey Origins through Genomics)! More information (🇬🇧 or 🇫🇷): ed-sevab.univ-toulouse.fr/as/ed/voirprop… RT🙏

Wonderful to see this paper on #dioecy in #Melastomataceae - this family holds many surprises, and it seems so puzzling why plants evolve separate sexes at high elevations or islands... way to go Juan Angulo and Fabián A. Michelangeli

I couldn't be happier today, as a co-author of an article published in The Plant Cell, of course, but above all as a PI. Clara Groot Crego has conducted outstanding work, rigorously analyzing diverse datasets +🙏Ovidiu Paun et al. Press release Universität Wien:medienportal.univie.ac.at/en/media/recen…

Interested to know more about our work: academic.oup.com/plcell/advance… By combining comparative genomics, transcriptomics and popgen, we studied how genetic drivers influenced the evolution of CAM, a water-saving photosynthesis, in Tillandsia, a textbook example of radiation in plants

Int. researchers have unlocked the secrets of plant adaptation, revealing how #GeneRegulation leads to water-efficient #photosynthesis in air plants. A breakthrough in understanding plant resilience!🧬 Read more about this study in The Plant Cell. ⤵ academic.oup.com/plcell/advance…

Author Clara Groot Crego:"Our findings reveal that while large-scale changes have influenced Tillandsia's genomes like other plants, the adjustment of how photosynthesis works mainly happens through how genes are regulated – not by changing the sequences that code for proteins."🧬

CAM evolution is associated with gene family expansion in an explosive bromeliad radiation (Clara Groot Crego, Jaqueline Hess, Gil Yardeni, Marylaure de La Harpe, et. al.) buff.ly/3UraSIi Clara Groot Crego Plant Ecological & Evolutionary Genomics UniVienna Ovidiu Paun Thibault Leroy ASPB #PlantSci

Réalisation d'une avancée significative dans la compréhension des facteurs génétiques impliqués dans l’évolution du métabolisme des plantes de la famille des Broméliacées🍍 Comment ❓ En décryptant notamment les mécanismes de résistance à la sècheresse ➡️url.inrae.fr/3V7i91T

What controls gene expression once genomes merge? Some key insights here, led by a tireless and brilliant Guanjing Hu. academic.oup.com/mbe/advance-ar…

A 160 Gbp fork fern genome shatters the size record for eukaryotes: cell.com/iscience/fullt… Why does such a tiny fern need such a massive genome? It's astonishing - about 50 times larger than the human genome! Congratulations, Ilia Leitch!

Congratulations to our talented fresh #PhD #graduate Clara Groot Crego from the Ovidiu Paun lab! She successfully defended her thesis yesterday entitled "Molecular sources of variation and their role in the adaptive radiation of Tillandsia" #evolution #genetics

LTR elements in New Caledonian persimmons’ adaptive radiation show a similar evolutionary history as SNPs with higher intra-specific variation #Evol2024
