Maybe the first time I've won a competition by breaking something! Unrealistic inputs=unrealistic outputs in a model! teapaw.org/ArchontoulisLab/status…

Most seed banks were built in the 1970s and 1980s and have seen little investment since econ.st/1XPYBKn

Wrote my first Python code on the way home from #molevol2013 ! Amazing what the right motivation (and a 3.5 hr layover) can do.

Sawyer talking about polio: People prayed for vaccines back then. There weren't Jenny McCarthy's. #Molevol2013

Jimmy Triplett: Hybridization important to understanding the phylogenetic tree even though many of them hardly ever flower. #MonocotsV
Wow! Poa has all sorts of reticulate evolution and parallel evolution all over the tree! #MonocotsV

Who knew Brachypodium had two species which hybridize to from a third allopolyploid? Cool! #MonocotsV
BB: substantial geographic structure in palms #MonocotsV
BB: Africa very palm poor. Except Madagascar #MonocotsV
BB: palms as a model for Tropical rain forest evolution study #MonocotsV
Bill Baker up next on biogeography and diversification in palms #MonocotsV
CB: palm tree well resolved with NGS, but with some disagreement between chloroplast and mitochondrial genomes. #MonocotsV
Arecaceae session; Craig Barrett: palms, 5 subfamilies all very different. #MonocotsV
Paul Peterson: interesting NADP to PCK reversion in Sporobolus! #MonocotsV
