Projects

Homoploid hybrid speciation Argyranthemum from the Canary Islands

Using pangenome and population genomics we are studying how Argyranthemum has evolved its two hybrid species.

Parallel evolution in Cabo Verde Diplotaxis Cabo verde Diplotaxis

We are exploring parallel evolution in Cabo Verde Diplotaxis!

IslandParadox Unraveling the Paradox of Genetic Diversity in Isolated Oceanic Lineages

We are exploring the adaptive radiation of Scalesia! Soon to expand to other projects.

Ecological disparity in adaptive radiation Are adaptive radiations predictable?

This is a project focusing on phylogenetic and ecological data

Bottlenecks vs hybridization Frasella's MSc thesis

How do Bottlenecks affect our ability to detect hybridization?

Genetic load in an insular Heliconius Geraldine's MSc thesis

In collaboration with Camilo Salazar and others in U de Rosario we are analysing genetic load in an insular Heliconius species

GWAS your way through Diego's MSc thesis

We are simulating trait and genomic data to understand the limits of GWAS approaches
