how does seasonal migration evolve? this question is to the heart of our focus and here we use common garden approach to characterise the amount of seasonal change in chromatin accessibility in ancestral migratory and derived resident populations of the Eurasian blackcap doi.org/10.1098/rstb...

spring has sprung and the #dreamteam is out in the forest. first #geolocator robins have been spotted and data already secured - such exciting times. we use #lotek radiotelemetry and light and pressure loggers to understand partial #migration in a European #robin population in Northern Germany.

Excited to share my first paper with the Liedvogel lab @genmig.bsky.social at @ifv-whv.bsky.social: Together with @jpartecke.bsky.social from the @mpi-animalbehav.bsky.social and many others, we looked at the genetics of partial migration in blackbirds onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/...

Combining Individual‐Based Radio‐Tracking With Whole‐Genome Sequencing Data Reveals Candidate for Genetic Basis of Partial Migration in a Songbird

Combining individual-based radio-tracking and whole-genome sequencing, we investigated the population genetics of a partial migratory songbird, the common blackbird. Using population genetic summary ...
