Moreover, we find that polyploid species have more loci under positive selection, particularly in genes relating to chemical defence against herbivores, a key ecological pressure on tropical trees 🐛

A lively debate on whether agroecology can help us achieve social wellbeing and conservation in the tropics, the short answer is yes, but it is also a socially, culturally, and politically complex question #ATBC2025 #tropicalbiology #Oaxaca

I propose carrying capacity (and deviations from) as gold standard biodiversity metric. It can be expressed as a power law which is beautifully ubiquitous and an emergent property of systems. #ATBC2025 #tropicalbiology #biodiversityCredits

I just received the annual review from @TropicalBiology, reminding me of the great learning experience on the TBA course in #Kirindy2014.

Great memories with @Andry_Ny_Aina, @MillieSCHood and many others!

2 days left to apply for the @TropicalBiology field course @mpalalive in Kenya!

I was fortunate enough to participate back in 2014 in Kirindy (Madagascar) and it was amazing!#TBAFieldcourse2020

welcome @sandra_velazco9 to twitter! Sandra is a Peruvian ecologist, who recently joined @BoiseStateEEB as a PhD student. she'll be studying reforestation by bats in fern-invaded areas of Peru! #restoration #tropicalbiology

It’s amazing what @RosieTrevelyan achieved with the @TropicalBiology association!

Just look at the number of TBA alumni who met today at #ATBC2019
