New prepint on microsporidia genome architecture. We (@peterdfields) find covariance in GC content, chromosomal sequence arrangement, and epigenetic modification doi.org/10.1101/2025.0…
We contrast these findings with a large, stable population of the same species, which allows us to identify and explicate the ways in which metapopulation dynamics affect SFS in important and quantifiable ways. (4/4)
We link the shifts to colonization, immigration, and other metapopulation-specific processes. Thus, we demonstrate a novel use of this summary as an indicator of rapid evolution in response to ecology. (3/4)
Here the study I presented @Biology24Zurich. It characterizes whole-genome allele frequency changes in dynamic metapopulations giving insights into their evolution. @peterdfields and I are looking forward to any sort of feedback doi.org/10.1101/2024.0… (1/4)
New year, new study organism! Finally some genomes of porcelain crabs: doi.org/10.1093/g3jour… Many thanks to Jonathon Stillman for involving me in the project. #G3Journal@GeneticsGSA
Thanks for organizing the Microsporidia Fest @BhabhaEkiertLab and offering me the opportunity to give a talk. Is there a tag for #MicrosporidiaFest, or is it a secret organization that I accidentally revealed? See the slides of my short presentation at: github.com/pascalangst/pa…
Thanks, everyone, for the discussions at #SMBE2023. For those who missed the sweaty poster session, here is a link to our SFS approach for the study of metapopulations doi.org/10.6084/m9.fig…
I spent two weeks at @Tvarminne doing field work and finishing the genome report for Hamiltosporidium tvaerminnensis – named after this place. It was a truly inspiring trip. Thank you @peterdfields, Dieter Ebert, Jean-François, and Jürgen doi.org/10.1101/2023.0…
Publication news: Our article about a microsporidium with a genome size of about 2 Mbp. (Eukaryote!) is out in #G3Journal@GeneticsGSA including the first microsporidian mutation rate estimate. When do we celebrate @peterdfields and Dieter Ebert? 🥳 doi.org/10.1093/g3jour…
@NM_Reid It's what we see for Daphnia populations in ponds on the same and on different islands that experience frequent extinction and (re)colonization. More on that is in preparation. doi.org/10.6084/m9.fig…
