Molecular Ecology Lab, Bielefeld University. In my research I try to understand the breeding ecology of species. Breeding ecology can affect how we view a species, their behaviour and morphology as well as the vulnerability of a population. The use of genetics in this field has show that everything is not as it seems. The genetic revolution enabled studies which showed that many socially monogamous birds have multiple mates. In my PhD I am researching inbreeding in banded mongooses (. Department of Anima...

Molecular Ecology Lab, Bielefeld University. My blog and other things can be found at mastoffel.github.io. I am studying the effects of variation in genomic homozygosity (i.e. the proportion of genes that are identical by descent or IBD) on fitness traits and extended phenotypes (odour, bacterial communities) in Pinnipeds. Therefore, I m using a range of genetic and genomic methods, from microsatellites to high throughput sequencing. Photo by Luke Eberhardt-Phillips. A simple package to align data from g...
