I am so proud & happy to see our Potamo genome assembly finally out there in the world! The process ended up being way more challenging than expected, but for some really cool reasons. ❤️🐌🧬
TLDR: Surprise! A VERY recent WGD.

Looking for an intro-level book on the biology of reproduction? I reviewed Understanding Reproduction for @qrb.bsky.social, and thought it was generally excellent, though the treatment of sexual vs. asexual reproduction was weird. Check it out! www.journals.uchicago.edu/doi/full/10....
