A complete reference genome for species with chromosomally-determined separate sexes should contain scaffolds for all sex chromosome homologs. However, sex chromosomes present distinct computational c...

I have some exciting news (again!). I got money from the region (Occitanie) to hire a postdoc (and later an engineer / technician) to work on drug resistance evolution in malaria (P. faciparum) and…

What I told early-career researchers about prediction, rigour, failure, priors — and the tyranny of bar graphs.

Genomic inversions spanning many genes can persist for millions of years. This study of Trinidadian guppy populations reveals how both ecological conditions and mate choice help maintain this hidden l...

The 2026 call has attracted considerable interest from the research community with 21,627 applications submitted.

Asexuality has evolved many times in planarians, but its genomic basis is unknown. This study shows that in the species S. mediterranea, a series of chromosomal rearrangements in a sexual an...

Centromeres are critical for accurate segregation of chromosomes and are often composed of megabases of tandemly arranged satellite repeats. Yet, despite their conserved function, the DNA sequence of ...

Peer Review Week (PRW) is a global celebration of the vital role peer review plays in ensuring the quality and integrity of research.

Interview with Susana Coelho, who uses brown algae to study evolution, development, and life-cycle complexity at the Max Planck Institute for Biology.

Lund University welcomes applicants with different backgrounds and experiences. Gender equality, equal opportunities and diversity are fundamental principles in all parts of the University’s activit

This website is a collection of lectures and tutorials given during the annual Bioinformatics course given at SLU by the SGBC.

Abstract. Natural selection might favour brightly coloured males and drab females. A male and a female might disagree about whether to mate. Such tensions

Transposable elements (TEs) are a highly diverse group of selfish genomic elements, prevalent across the tree of life, whose uncontrolled propagati...

Scientists share help and advice on how they got their research discussions flowing.

Transposable elements (TEs) contribute to genome expansions, gene duplications, and the evolution of gene regulatory networks. Recent work has highlighted the role of TE domestication in contributing ...

Abstract. Recent years have seen an explosion in examples of supergenes, where recombination is suppressed between haplotypes, often via inversion polymorp
