This is a graduate seminar devoted to issues of interest to graduate students and faculty who make up the systematics program at the University of Connecticut.

We will follow up on Emily Lemmon's visit by discussing her methods paper on anchored enrichment. Lemmon AR, Emme SA, Lemmon EM. 2012. Anchored hybrid enrichment for massively high-throughput phylogenomics. Syst Biol. 61(5):727-44. link Monday, 16 September 2013 Lily Lewis will lead the discussion this week Since cichlids came up last week, it may be fun to read a cichlid RAD-seq paper: Wagner et al. 2013. Genome-wide RAD sequence data provide unprecedented resolution of species boundaries and relationships in the Lake Victoria cichlid adaptive radiation. Molecular Ecology 22(3):787-798 link Here is a link to a supplementary paper folks may be interested in for an overview of the applications of RAD-sequencing (or at least those conceived of thus far): Davey, J. W., and M. L. Blaxter. 2010. RADSeq: next-generation population genetics. Briefings in Functional Genomics 9(5-6):416-423 link Here is a link to a protocol for RAD-seq library prep, just in case anyone is interested: Etter, P. Sequenced RAD markers for rapid SNP disovery and genetic mapping. link Finally, here is a PowerPoint concatenation of a few figures from various papers laying out how the RAD-seq process works. This may be a helpful supplement for understanding the methods in the cichlid paper link Monday, 23 September 2013 Paul Lewis will lead the discussion this week. Salichos L., and Rokas A. 2013.
