- Reposted by Fay-Wei LiMy NSF PRFB on the genetics of female polymorphism in hummingbirds was terminated yesterday. I don't have much to say, I'm just sad. We've discovered so much, and could have gone so much further. If anyone else is in the same boat, esp postdocs, please reach out, it would be good to connect.

- Jacob Suissa and I wrote a #book about #ferns! It's beautifully illustrated by the amazing artist Laura Silburn. Will be released in May and you can preorder from Amazon. We hope this book could help you forget all the bad things happening on Earth right now. More here: mailchi.mp/btiscience/f...

- Great article by @jcarlosvillarreal.bsky.social and @kathrinrousk.bsky.social! Just want to add that #ferns and #lycophytes are also “overlooked, inconspicuous plants — hidden in the shadows” 😉
- New Correspondence: "Time to end the vascular plant chauvinism" rdcu.be/d38L4 The emphasis on vascular plants reveals a bias that leaves the non-vascular plants — the tiny, overlooked, inconspicuous plants — hidden in the shadows, literally.
- Thoroughly enjoyed this meeting!!
- Thanks to @fromani.bsky.social for organising #nonseedUK24 in Cambridge. What a fantastic meeting. Thanks for the generous sponsorship @gensocuk.bsky.social and @biologists.bsky.social 😃 🌱 🧬
