My primary interests are evolution and speciation in the grass family Poaceae, specifically the tribe Andropogoneae.

Preprint now available for CaneCestry! A software I made to assist sugarcane breeders in generating family trees and numerator relationship matrices.

Glad for the opportunity to present my software Canecestry at NAPB, National Association for Plant Breeding in Kona, Hawaii!

How many times do I have to listen to Sapolski's Stanford lectures on Human behavioral biology before I can watch the news without breaking a sweat?

Hello! For my first post on Bluesky I would like to issue a question to my followers. My primary interest/focus is evolution and speciation, specifically within the Poaceae. I have a pretty good collection of textbooks but I am curious to see what others recommend.
