MEIOTIC DRIVE AND THE EVOLUTION OF CHROMOSOMES

In 2001, Pardo-Manuel de Villena and Sapienza observed that positions of centromeres in mammalian genomes does not follow the expected normal distribution. What was going on? (1/8)

Two new chapters from my open-access textbook in human population genetics are now online:
- Population structure: I. Ancestry estimation
- Population structure: II. More about admixture

New paper from the lab! late sharing it (blame sleep deprivation due to 4months old baby!). Led by Frances Burden and with Peter Ellis - A shared ‘vulnerability code’ underpins varying sources of DNA damage throughout paternal germline transmission in mouse academic.oup.com/nar/advance-ar…

A very impressive effort to estimate germline mutation rates from trio sequencing in 68 vertebrate species. Beyond the insights into mutation rate evolution, also a great resource of mutation rates of use to population genomics studies in various species.
