New work by @SnellRoodLab et al. finds diversity of #BumbleBees & #butterflies in Minnesota roadsides depends on floral diversity & abundance, not native status: doi.org/10.1111/icad.1… #OpenAccess @fuzzybumblebee

Students in my animal behavior course enjoyed using DataClassroom to figure out how to setup statistical tests -- and many liked how it links directly to R code!
Looking for a better way to have students begin to work with real data in your course? Come talk to @mr_reedy at our booth during the coffee breaks! #Evolution2023

CROSSINGS has its first official review, and it's a doozy from @KirkusReviews, which bestowed a coveted ⭐️:

"Goldfarb’s follow-up to Eager, his award-winning book on beavers, is another illuminating, witty work... an astonishingly deep pool of wonders."

Happy to share that the chemistry of the black nectar of Melianthus is now published. It started with a discussion with @rachelvannette at a conference about this sp and finding out that it grew on the UC Davis campus, expediting the access to it. Haha! nph.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/np…

March is just around the corner, and so are fox kits! With pup-rearing season coming up, foxes and coyotes are starting to move into dens like the one pictured above (note the condensation from a warm occupant forming the crystals on the snow above the den - someone’s home!).

Traffic patterns – more than adjacent land use – influence element content of roadside forbs & most levels of metals are below toxic levels for leaf-feeding caterpillars 🚗🐛📉

This is so cool!! "Weaker selection on genes with treatment-specific expression may limit plasticity evolution in Arabidopsis thaliana"
I'm super excited to share my first 1st-author publication with the world!

Roadsides are not a passing blur for @SnellRoodLab + colleagues. They study how roadsides might provide critical habitat for monarchs+other 🦋🐝. With big implications for management, Snell-Rood connects w/ @MnDOT @MNBWSR @mndnr. Learn more @UMNresearch > research.umn.edu/news/roadside-…
