PhD in molecular biology. SatDNA, mobile elements, sex chromosomes and cytogenomics in maaany insect groups (also plants, vertebrates...)🦋 🐜 🪲 🐞 🐠🪳🪰






























Finally published another PhD paper! 📝 A long and intense journey, but worth it: in beetles with fewer chromosomes, chromosomal rearrangements go hand in hand with massive reshuffling of repetitive DNA. Huge thanks to my amazing co-authors! 🪲💥🧬 doi.org/10.1038/s41437…






Another paper in 2025! 📝 Diving into a new group: Neuroptera. Cytogenomic analyses in two Chrysopidae show: low shared satDNA, rapid turnover, stable karyotypes, canonical telomere motif missing, rDNA varies. Fascinating genome dynamics! 🧬 Thanks to all! dx.doi.org/10.1139/gen-20…











Excited to share our new paper in @molecology on sex chromosome evolution in African killifish! 🐟 A great collaboration with @AlexandrSember! We uncovered ≥4 sex chromosome turnovers across Nothobranchius spp. using cytogenetics & genomics. 👉 onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/me…
