#phylogenomics — Public Fediverse posts

Live and recent posts from across the Fediverse tagged #phylogenomics, aggregated by home.social.

  1. #Phylogenomics is a field that uses entire genomes to reconstruct the evolutionary history of life, building on traditional phylogenetics by leveraging large-scale genomic data.

    It analyzes a wide range of genomic information to infer relationships between organisms, study gene and genome evolution, and overcome limitations of single-gene or single-locus analyses

  3. Excited to share our new #preprint!

    Large-scale Phylogenomics Reveals Systematic Loss of Anthocyanin Biosynthesis Genes at the Family Level in #Cucurbitaceae
    🔗 doi.org/10.1101/2025.10.06.680

    We uncover family-level losses of anthocyanin and proanthocyanidin biosynthesis genes — shedding light on the evolution of pigment diversity in cucurbits.

  6. Assisted by sniffer #dogs, researchers discover 3 new #truffle species phys.org/news/2025-08-sniffer-

    #Phylogenomics, trophic ecology, and systematics of the truffle-forming Morchellaceae ingentaconnect.com/content/wfb

    "the paper confirms what a lot of people had suspected for a long time, which is that the North American truffle species is genetically very distinct from its European relatives... Scientists are giving this #NewSpecies a name honoring the #Cascadia region: Leucangium cascadiense"

  7. Worker ants increase their reproductive success by caring for their siblings instead of producing their own offspring. An international research team has now uncovered the genetic basis of ant evolution. (Orig. publ. doi.org/10.1016/j.ce...) #ants #phylogenomics #evolution

    New study provides deep insigh...

  8. PhyloSIB, our annual workshop about molecular evolution, phylogenetics, and comparative phylogenomics took place Wednesday in Lausanne as a satellite event preceding Biology25.

    15 SIB Groups gave presentations on recent developments in the field. We had a full house with 80 participants. A lively and fruitful open discussion forum concluded the workshop.

  10. Scientists recreate the head of this ancient 9-foot-long bug
    phys.org/news/2024-10-scientis

    Head anatomy and #phylogenomics show the #Carboniferous giant #Arthropleura belonged to a millipede-centipede group science.org/doi/10.1126/sciadv

    "The giant bug's topper was a round bulb with two short bell-shaped antennae, two protruding eyes like a crab, and a rather small mouth adapted for grinding leaves and bark"
