streams across the continent, multiple differently coloured catfish communities coexist, forming diverse mimicry “rings.” This project will use whole-genome resequencing to tackle three key questions: Which
-
will aim to answer this, by sequencing whole genomes from the few surviving British red squirrel populations, and continental reference populations. It will also sequence historical British squirrel
-
samples, including methane, CO, and isoprene, will be measured by gas chromatography, while DNA sequencing and metagenomic analyses will identify functional genes responsible for trace gas oxidation
-
the possibility of evolutionary convergence. Training and Skills Development You will gain expertise in: Molecular biology: RNA/DNA extraction, library preparation, next-generation sequencing Bioinformatics

an individual Resistant, Tolerant, or Susceptible (R/T/S) to a virus? That is the key question we aim to answer in this PhD study. We have gathered data on viral outbreaks over ~20 years and sequenced hundreds
