Did the benthic and limnetic stickleback in BC have a single origin?

Parallelism provides evidence of natural selection, but studies with pre-selected taxon pairs are likely biased. We demonstrate parallelism in an intercontinental study of #stickleback, without bias. Congratulations Isabel Magalhaes, @jimwhiting_sci , @DanDagostino_ et al.

Nice work Stu! This is an important result for #ecoimmunology

Our new paper is now online @Ecol_Evol: Relationships between immune gene expression and circulating cytokine levels in wild house mice (with @JFennBio, @ElenaArriero, @MacColl_Lab and others not on Twitter...) onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.10…

A new paper by Jim Whiting shows for the first time that summer day length results in changes to immune function in fish and a reduced ability to resist a parasitic infection, probably as a consequence of inducing breeding condition royalsocietypublishing.org/doi/10.1098/rs…

The MacColl lab has a new manuscript out, describing genomic parallelism across multiple adaptive radiations of stickleback in Alaska, British Columbia, Scotland and Iceland:

Interdisciplinary investigation into sympartric species-pairs... What do they look like? How reproductively isolated are they? How did they form? And why here and now? #science #biology #ecology #speciation #evolution #Genomics #stickleback

What feels like my life's work is finally ready... our work on #speciation in sympatric #stickleback species-pairs is out in @MBE_press, a huge collaborative effort @AndrewFoote2 @DanDagostino_ @Suz_McG @MacColl_Lab & others not on twitter, thanks all! :) doi.org/10.1093/molbev…

Our 'Virgin Mary' paper is out. Read it to find out about the #stickleback immaculate conception, pregnancy and virgin birth! rdcu.be/bnEWz @UoNLifeSci @UoNScience @UoNPressOffice

We found a wild #stickleback (nicknamed the 'Virgin Mary'), pregnant with almost fully developed embryos, which are still alive today (see photo)!! Find out how we think it happened in our paper out today in @SciReports! (rdcu.be/bnEWz) #Evolution #Biology @FishSci
