Congrats to #WGDip team members @tomlewin.bsky.social @dervc.bsky.social @phylogenie.bsky.social & @peterhox.bsky.social , who with their colleague @yjluo.bsky.social , provide evidence consistent with lineage-specific rediploidisation following a cryptic polyploidy event shared by all bryozoans! 🧪

Due to the high level of interest in ESEB 2025 (17–22 August, Barcelona, Spain), the Committee has decided to extend the abstract submission deadline to Monday, 5 May 2025 which means you have more time to perfect your abstract for our symposium! @wgdip.bsky.social
