Sampling season 2017 has just started. We aim to collect D. melanogaster males into EtOH, approx. 30-40 (50) flies in one pool for DNA extractions and subsequent sequencing. Members of the DrosEU consortium do an effort to collect flies for a minimum of 1 geographic location and 2 time points (once in summer and once incontinue …
Josefa González and her team at the Laboratory of Evolutionary and Functional Genomics are leading the Melanogaster Catch the Fly outreach project. This is the first European citizen science network in adaptation genomics. Through direct involvement, the proposal aims to bring science to students and teachers within the framework of the first scientific project in genomics adaptationcontinue …
