Hace seis años veía con ilusión en los medios de comunicación la noticia extraordinaria del hallazgo de múltiples restos de megafauna (hoy miles) encontrados durante la construcción del AIFA. En ese momento no imaginé que iba a tener la oportunidad de participar de esta gran aventura 1/N

Nature research paper: One mother for two species via obligate cross-species cloning in ants

go.nature.com/45PYV6d
One mother for two species via obligate cross-species cloning in ants - Nature
In a case of obligate cross-species cloning, female ants of Messor ibericus need to clone males of Messor structor to obtain sperm for producing the worker caste, resulting in males from the same mother having distinct genomes and morphologies.

I will be recruiting two PhDs for my ERC Project HERDPATH - let's discover out how livestock and pathogens evolved together using #aDNA. Projects will be animal or pathogen focused but will be in dialogue.

Details at my quaint website below. Deadline 3rd October.

"Clonal males may thus be regarded as organelles at the superorganism level". Whatever mitochondrial challenges you may face, at least none of your organelles is an ENTIRE INSECT.
