Smaller population > accumulation of mutations > less efficient mitochondria. Does this hold true for the Marsican bears?
We obtained some interesting results...

Don't worry, we haven't disappeared! We were quite busy producing genomic resources, studying genomic variation patterns and running simulations...

Finally...we are very proud to announce the video of the project!
One of our aims is to communicate science to the widest audience possible, and we think that this video is perfect for the purpose!
Thanks to
@JSacquegno for the beautiful drawings

To make our blog easier to read for everyone, we have just included a glossary (also in Italian): endemixit.com/glossary/
...and in the same perspective, we created the Italian Wikipedia page for Conservation Genomics (Genomica della Conservazione): it.wikipedia.org/wiki/Genomi…
Huge amount of high quality data from the re-sequencing runs. Look at the numbers in this new post!
