We published a paper. We used phylodynamics to analyze over 2000 isolates from the meningococcal B epidemic that New Zealand experienced from 1991 to 2008. We found the epidemic strain maybe circulating a decade before disease was detected and suggest that increasing inequalities in New Zealand during late 1980s/early 1990s may have contributed to the start of the epidemic in. the pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/399240 #phylogeny #infectiousdiseases #publichealth

I wish I could get a large enough print of this that I could actually read it. It's a phylogeny of flowering plants along with examples of typical flowers from each genus. Mind blown. #NativePlants #Phylogeny

Marveling about this beautiful #wasp #phylogeny visualization from the great book "Wasps" by Eric R. Eaton. I'd so love to have that (with timeline approximations) for EVERY taxon.

@dantheclamman Naked (kind-of) shell-less clams with an agile foot read like a proto-cephalopod. Are they close at all to the phylogenetic branch that took off with squids, octopus and cuttlefish, or is "cephalopodness" a trait that can re-evolve from an ancestral clam base?

Literally every time I google #Phylogeny stuff: 'shit, I forgot just how long the Cretaceous was'. It's like half the Mesozoic!

some people say
it's a dinosaur
other people say
it's actually
a non-dinosaur
dinosauriform
or a non-dinosauriform
dinosauromorph
or a pterosauromorph
or maybe even a
non-archosaur
archosauriform
or a non-archosauriform
archosauromorph
why
just the other day
I was sure
it was a dinosaur
or at least
somewhere near
the base
of the dinosaur tree
but keeps gettin' further
and further away it seems

Just curious but is there any study looking at the phylogenetic placements of juveniles and adults from morphological data of extant animals? I see lots of discussions in dinosaur research on this topic but not looked into it in any detail so was just wondering if anyone's looked at this problem in extant species... #Palaeontology #phylogenetics #phylogeny

New #preprint out 😁 looking at structural causes and mitigation of #identifiability problems when reconstructing past evolutionary change, inspired by the problems in phylogenetic inference.
It's quite technical, and unfortunately I don't have time/funding to continue working on this in the near future 😕 but maybe these thoughts are helpful to the #EvolutionaryBiology community
