  6. Evolution is faster with stronger selection, but this may come with a demographic cost. Xu & Osmond characterized conditions when the chance of evolutionary rescue increases with the strength of selection across different scenarios.

  9. The #Evolutionary #QuantitativeGenetics Workshop for 2023 is taking place at #UWashington's Friday Harbor Laboratories from June 4-10. The workshop will review the basics of theory in the field of evolutionary quantitative genetics and its connections to evolution observed at various time scales. Application deadline is March 31. More info here: fhl.uw.edu/courses/course-desc

  10. New article recommended at PCI Evolutionary Biology this morning!

  11. Now out in G3: "Genetics of tibia bone properties of crossbred commercial laying hens in different housing systems", our GWAS of bone quality traits (and body mass, because, you know, if you weigh a chicken you have to GWAS it) in laying hens. With collaborators from SLU, the Roslin Institute and University of Granada. @DJ_de_Koning

  12. Bulmer is out of print. Bürger and Walsh & Lynch are extremely expensive and too heavy to lift, respectively. Are there other more accessible texts on multilocus and infinitesimal quantitative genetic models?

  13. #introduction
    Hi fellow ecoevo socialites! My name is Walid Mawass and I hail from the small country of Lebanon, currently in the US (previously Canada and France). I count myself as an #evolutionarygeneticist, my research interests focus on #naturalselection and #geneticvariation. I work with both #quantitativegenetics and #populationgenetics models, heavy on the computation. I am currently working on #mutationload and #populationdynamics. Other interests include #music #policy #education

  14. Yay! My abstract got accepted to the #QuantitativeGenetics and #genomics Gordon Conference. Really looking forward to this one.

  15. Hi everyone!

    I am a Senior Lecturer in #SilwoodPark at #ImperialCollegeLondon. I am interested how social behaviours (#MateChoice, SexualSelection, #sociality) and #LifeHistory traits (#ageing, reproductive traits) evolve in birds. I've also published on #WomenInScience. I use #quantitativegenetics to better understand how #phenotypes are governed by #genetic architecture.

    I have too many #pets, I like #hiking, #birding, #moths, and #fungi.

    Will follow you back - toot!

  18. #Introduction:

    Hi everyone!

    I am an Associate Professor in the Dept. of Biological Sciences at #VirginiaTech. I study #evolutionarybiology in #snakes, #lizards, #birds, and other organisms. I use #quantitativegenetics, #bioinformatics, and #theory to understand #evolution of complex #phenotypes.

    I'm not posting a lot right now, but that might change. Expect mostly #science, #academia, etc. Will keep #music and #baseball on the birdsite for now.

    Following everyone back for a limited time.

  22. #introduction
    👋 :mastodon:,
    I'm a researcher at #INRAE-Nouzilly (France) studying #quantitativegenetics of #chicken #behaviour (especially #socialbehavior) to improve #animalwelfare

    I tackle these questions using my background from #EvolutionaryBiology. I've investigated how #sexualselection and #genetic constraints (#pleiotropy, between life stages & sexes) can drive the #evolution of phenotypes & behaviours in red #junglefowl and #drosophila (some cool stuffs to be published soon!)

  23. #Introduction - I am an #evolutionary #biologist studying the early evolution of #family life and #social life (mainly) in #insects.

    The methods I use typically involve #behaviours, #immunity (social immunity), #ecotoxicology (#anthropic effects), and #quantitativegenetics.

    My main study system is the #earwig (#Dermaptera), a fantastic but little-known taxon.

    I am a very strong defender of #OpenScience

  27. So about this #introduction : I work on #statistics for #genetics at #INRAE in the #animal genetics division. I am interested in understanding the #evolution of quantitative traits in #livestock populations, with a specific interest for #recombination. I do #DataAnalysis and method development in #popgen and #QuantitativeGenetics. I like #programming in #python and playing with #R

  28. The #Fediscience #mastodon instance kindly asks for an #introduction. Here it is:

    I am an evolutionary biologist at #IDEEV (#CNRS #UniversiteParisSaclay, France). Wide interests in #Evolution, including #PopGen, #QuantitativeGenetics, #SystemsBiology, and #Genome evolution (in particular, #TransposableElements). Mostly #Theory and #DataAnalysis.

    I am part of the recent #twitterMigration of #Academia, and very happy to find so many people #ESEBFolks here!
