In our research about genetics, evolution and distribution risk of invasion species, we recently published a study that, in three lines, we can describe as: “Evaluating interspecific interactions between native and non-native closely related species with genetic information and niche modeling approach was key to determine the distribution patterns, range limits and invasion risks of Trachemys… Continue reading Distribution risk of invasion species

The importance of evolutionary thinking in food production
A blog by Mauricio C. Bellon highlights the importance of evolutionary thinking in agricultural science. “Using evolutionary thinking (theories, data, and tools from evolutionary biology) can help stakeholders understand and manage the trade-offs between producing “cheap” food at scale and the disservices that this generates.” Mauricio states in his blog about his experiences at the… Continue reading The importance of evolutionary thinking in food production
