New subject: Journal Club Tomorrow: Species or no species? Supergenes' effect on bird phenotypes and evolution

28 Oct 2024


      This Friday, the Biology Journal Club will discuss the roles of Supergenes in the context of conservation genomics.  Welcome at 10:15 in TM113, no registration needed.

The session is led by Stefan Prost from the Biodiversity Genomics research group.
There are 3 main readings, but two of them are short 1-page case examples. If you like the topic, you may also read the 2 extended readings as a bonus.
Readings are available in the moodle page sectionhttps://moodle.oulu.fi/course/view.php?id=24624#section-5 (self-enrolment key: journal ) and enclosed here for convenience:
