#RecercaUB | 🧬 La iniciativa Catalan Initiative for the Earth Biogenome Project, coliderada per la #UniBarcelona, seqüenciarà els genomes de les més de 40.000 plantes, animals i fongs dels Països Catalans. 🌍 L’objectiu és evitar la pèrdua de biodiversitat afectada pel #canviclimàtic. Lideren la recerca

1/6 El XXè International Botanical Congress ha tingut lloc la darrera setmana a Madrid, i el GEOVEG hi hem participat coorganitzant el simposi ALPINE PLANT ECOLOGY AND DIVERSITY: FROM SPECIES TO ECOSYSTEMS i presentant alguns treballs recents de l'equip. Alba Anadon-Rosell IBC2024

Our new article in PLOS ONE: Optimal inventorying and monitoring of taxonomic, phylogenetic and functional diversity. In this paper, we propose a method for the optimization of sampling protocols using Iberian 🕷️and Amazonian 🦇 as two case-studies. journals.plos.org/plosone/articl…

Because of their high diversity, trophic shifts, colonization and diversification in extreme and isolated habitats, red devil spiders are truly fascinating. Our latest paper doi.org/10.1111/cla.12… provides a phylogenetic framework and timeline for studying their evolution

Just one week before we meet for the 34th European Congress of Arachnology in Rennes! Looking forward to see you there.

3rd talk of this symposium about Genomics of Arachnids by Miquel Arnedo introducing us about the use of comparative genomics used to study the super interesting adaptive radiation of red devil Dysdera spiders in the Canary Islands #eca2024 European Society Of Arachnology

First SpiderSysEvo appearance with Miquel Arnedo 's talk on the genomics of canarian Dysdera and the genome size of island vs contiental species. Talk in collaboration with Molecular Evolutionary Genetics (UB) ! #ECA2024

Today’s keynote speaker was Stano Perkar presenting his insights into Defences in arachnids, a lot of evidences to prove for the upcoming arachnologists! Such an interesting plenary talk! #eca2024 European Society Of Arachnology Drawing by our really talented scientific illustrator Jagoba Malumbres-Olarte

Last wednesday I did a talk on the community ecology of spiders at local spatial scales and the role of vegetation structure at #ECA2024 in Rennes, France! Thanks to all my coauthors and to everyone that has helped with this project!

On this 5th and penultimate day of congress, we are more than happy to listen to the plenary talk of Rosemary Gillespie about her work Diversification of Spiders on the remote Islands of Oceania European Society Of Arachnology #eca2024

📢PAPER OUT in Molecular Ecology, where we descipher the complex #evolutionary history of the #invasive species #Styelaplicata. Ancients splits, secondary contacts, two recent #introductions, migration, ongoing #adaptation... What else are you looking for?👇 onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/me…

Had a very nice time in #ECA2024 🕷️

#eca2024 is over! Thx you all for coming here to Rennes, Fr, for your great talks and posters! Passing on the torch to Croatia for #eca2025 in Zadar, co-organized by Martina Pavlek 🕷️ and Dora Hlebec. Team members missing on the pic: H. Arezki, M. Alletrut, A.
