Dr. Krystal Tsosie smiles at the camera in an indoor setting, wearing glasses, a blue top, a black blazer, and turquoise earrings. Text overlay reads “How should genomics evolve as it scales globally?” followed by a quote discussing how long-read genomics increases durability, reuse, downstream impact, and the need for deeper governance and relationships as genomic data persists across databases and applications.
Dr. Mark Blaxter stands outdoors in a grassy field under a cloudy sky, wearing a red hoodie and blue jacket while holding a plant seed head in his hands. Text overlay reads “What new tech will reduce costs most?” followed by a quote describing cold-chain-free collection methods that enable long-read and long-range (Hi-C) sequencing from samples collected and shipped at room temperature.

#News 🔬 A new genetic study reveals that Galápagos Vermilion Flycatchers aren’t one uniform species—but a group of long-isolated island lineages, shaped by hundreds of thousands of years of evolution.

Why this matters: 🦋🧬 Butterflies and moths make up ~10% of all known eukaryotes. Sequencing their genomes powers research in evolution, conservation, climate resilience, and sustainable pest management.

🌍✨ Why genome sequence mega-diverse countries?
A handful of countries hold >70% of Earth’s terrestrial biodiversity — packed with species found nowhere else. These places are evolution’s playground… and extinction’s front line.

This is based on a talk I gave to the Crop Trust, before we conserve we need to understand the standing variation in the genebanks we have -- #ConservationGenomics kamounlab.medium.com/crispr-gene-...
#LIBresearch: Study by @yanischrysost.bsky.social & colleagues delivers the 1st reference genome of the endangered Ural Owl. It sheds light on genome evolution & highlights the value of cell cultures in #ConservationGenomics. 🦉🦉🦉

Together with the growing number of genome reference assemblies and specialised bioinformatics tools being shared and developed, we believe our study shows how much potential metagenomics approaches hold for #BiodiversityMonitoring and #ConservationGenomics.
👋After the summer break, #ERGAPlenary meetings are back today at 15:00 CEST! We’re excited to reconnect as a community, share member updates and hear an exciting talk on #ConservationGenomics (details below).

Genomic imputation can boost dataset quality and benefit research on wild populations. In hihi, we found high #imputation accuracies despite a small reference panel of high-fecundity individuals. Imputation improves downstream #ConservationGenomics analyses. onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/...
