For a project, we needed a tool that will batch download phylogeographic DNA samples (like mtDNA and nucDNA) for lots of species, which have just been sitting on NCBI since the PCR and Sanger-sequencing era (ca. 2003-2015) and can still be hella useful, so I wrote one. It aligns the sequences, too 👍

☀️ Fantastic, it seems that this platform is finally becoming a more lively place.
I look forward to exchanges on aquatic biodiversity, ecology & evolution. And of course genetic methods to infer patterns & processes in aquatic ecosystems. #eDNA #metabarcoding #populationgenetics #genomics

More than 2 million Indigenous people likely lived in Australia in 1788, over seven times the figure used for a century, and numbers fell by over 90 percent by 1861. #Archaeology #IndigenousAustralia #PopulationGenetics www.anthropology.net/p/australia-...
Australia Was Home to 2.2 Million Indigenous People in 1788
DNA, radiocarbon dates and climate models put 1788 Aboriginal Australia at over seven times the old estimate, with excess deaths near 2 million by 1861.

“Here we reframe the inference of coalescence times as a problem of translation between two biological languages: the sparse, observable patterns of mutation along the genome and the unobservable ancestral recombination graph that gave rise to them.”
