Have any #QuantGen folk tried fitting an animal model with the new covariance structure in glmmTMB? Intrigued at the prospect of fitting big models in seconds/minutes rather than days/weeks...

Quantitative genetics of reaction norms: an onion partitionning – Pierre de Villemereuil

Took me a year (😱), but I finally published a blog post about our article on the #quantgen variance partition of phenitypic plasticity with @lmchev.bsky.social, published in @peercomjournal.bsky.social.

Research engineer : Genetic of resilience ans social networks in hens You will join the GENUTS team (Genetics, Nutrition, Systems), in the BOA Joint Research Unit (Avian Biology & Poultry Research) located in Nouzilly (25 km from Tours), under the supervision of Dr J. Collet. You will also collaborate with Dr N. Bédère in the unit PEGASE (Physiology, Environemnt and genetics for Livestock and rearing systems) based in Saint-Gilles (Britany).The BOA unit conducts research on farmed birds, from the molecular level to the animal in its environment. The unit aims to generate knowledge in physiology, nutrition and genetics, and to contribute to the agroecological transition of farming systems (environmental sustainability, animal welfare, and product quality). The GENUTS team (20 collaborators) focuses on both nutrition and genetics to improve poultry farming systems.Your work will be part of the European EUPAHW project HenCare (Hen Emotional Needs – Comprehensive assessment and Resilience Enhancement) coordinated by the University of Newcastle, in in collaboration with KU Leuven, the University of Bern, and Hendrix genetics. The project aims to identify predictors and behavioural indicators of long-term emotional states in laying hens, as well as their genetic bases.More specifically, your missions will include:Conduct quantitative genetic analyses of behavioural, physiological, and neurobiological data (heritability, genetic correlations, GWAS)Set up and interpret social networks data from hen behaviour, and test whether social network position predicts resilience.

🚨🚨Postdoc offer! Join the HenCare project to study #resilience in 🐔, combining quant🧬, behaviours, and social networks. We’re after someone with a PhD in animal or data sciences, and some experience in #quantgen and/ or social network analysis to join us in Tours, France. jobs.inrae.fr/en/ot-27511

If you’re at #SMBE2025 and want to know how polygenic adaptation to different environmental change scenarios proceeds, go see PhD student Yuna Zhang from my lab presenting today 17:10-17:15 in Symposium 22 #quantgen

GWAS results showing significant SNPs associated with the number of errors made during the inhibitory control task.

GWAS results showing significant SNPs associated with the number of errors made during the inhibitory control task.

Using #quantgen, #commongarden, and #GWAS approaches, we find that urban and forest great tits do not differ (phenotypically or genetically) in their cognitive abilities related to inhibitory control, but show that cognitive variation may have a genetic basis.

Partitioning the phenotypic and genetic variances of reaction norms

Today's Quan Gen Journal Club : a paper by @pdevillemereuil.bsky.social‬ & @lmchev.bsky.social that presents the new #Rpackage Reacnorm to partition phenotypic & genetic var in reaction norms - it was tough but worth it !
