Not everyone is shrinking: increases in body mass and wing length in a Sand Martin (Riparia riparia) population in northwestern Italy over two decades
In recent decades, vertebrates, particularly birds, have exhibited notable morphological changes in response to climate change. In birds, these temporal trends usually entail a decrease in body mass ...

How does genetic architecture constrain evolutionary trajectories? To address this question, we inferred the genetic architecture of convergent plumage coloration and its evolutionary history in wheatears.

A mosaic of modular variation at a single gene underpins convergent plumage coloration
The reshuffling of genomic variation from multiple origins is an important contributor to phenotypic diversification, yet insights into the evolutionary trajectories of this combinatorial process and ...

Our new @science.org paper is out! Cuckoos and hosts are locked in a coevolutionary arms race over egg mimicry.
But how are these egg types inherited, and could this drive speciation? We sequenced hundreds of genomes to find out!

Genomic architecture of egg mimicry and its consequences for speciation in parasitic cuckoos
Host-parasite arms races facilitate rapid evolution and can fuel speciation. Cuculus cuckoos are deceptive egg mimics that exhibit a broad diversity of counterfeit egg phenotypes, representing host-ad...

I did something very special this week. had the big honour to speak at the opening of ‘#Johtingeaidnu – The Path Within’ a prize winning art exhibition of Emilia Tikka with Oula and Leena Valkeapää. special, because the opening speech I was asked to give should be on #epigenetics -
