Our tool *pylifemap* for mapping data onto the complete Tree of Life is ready !
Explore YOUR datasets (metagenomics, ecology, genomics, outreach...) in a FULL taxonomy-aware context, interactively!
Gve it a try!
The doc: lifemap-tol.github.io/pylife…
The draft: biorxiv.org/content/10.64898…
NEW ARTICLE! After showing that ghost lineages (extinct, unknown, unsampled) can distort gene flow detection, we now show that gene flow signals can be used to detect, quantify, and place ghost species in the Tree of Life!

More to come soon! (hopefully)
📢 A new version of Lifemap will soon be available at a new URL. Automatic redirection will be implemented, but if you develop or use tools or applications that could be affected, please contact me to ensure a smooth transition: damien.de-vienne@univ-lyon1.fr. 🚀

#ÉchappéesInattendues
[1/2] Very surprised by the editorial process at @PNASNews.
- We wrote a letter about a published paper
- We got a review fully agreeing with us
- we made the requested (minor) corrections
- We waited 1 month
- We got rejected without any justification...
[2/2] After asking, it seems that our letter was sent to the authors (which is good) and then the editor decided on its own that our letter "did not contribute substantially to the discussion..."
- What did the authors write?
- What does the/a reviewer think?
We will never know

📢Just a quick reminder that the international
conference SFE2 (Ecology andEvolution) will take place in Lyon next fall. And abstract submissions are still open until May, 15th!
...and note the nice session on "Macroevolution and phylogeny" 😉
@SFE2_2024
Just tried this very nice new extension in Google Chrome, the "Google Scholar PDF Reader". It eases a lot the interconnection between the paper you are reading and other cited in the text!!
A description of this tool here:
scholar.googleblog.com/2024/…
A new version of Lifemap (the NCBI taxonomy explorer) is about to be released. It will simplify the visualisation of data (@IUCNRedList, genome information, age of nodes thanks to @TTOLv5, ...) and link to external resources (@NCBI, @GBIF, @NCBI).
Any requests for YOUR research?

How do "ghost" lineages impact use of branch length methods to infer timing of #HGT events? @toni_gabaldon &co discuss key considerations regarding the potential effect of such missing lineages: plos.io/4crpJLl Response by @damdevienne &co: plos.io/49YqVEl
The French Society for Ecology and Evolution is organizing its next international conference in Lyon!
Come listen to nice talks and (re)discover this lovely city!
PhylteR, our new tool for filtering phylogenomics datasets, is now out!
doi.org/10.1093/molbev/msad2…
PhylteR identifies with precision, from a collection of gene trees, the "outlier" sequences responsible for a lack of concordance among gene trees.
How it works? A small thread 👇
For more details read the paper!
And **GIVE IT A TRY!!**
PhylteR is a package written in R language available on CRAN (cran.r-project.org/web/packa…), but also as singularity and docker containers.
