Adam G. Jones is a Professor in the Department of Biological Sciences at the University of Idaho, part of the College of Science. His research focuses on evolutionary biology, sexual selection, and the genomics of male pregnancy in syngnathid fishes like pipefish and seahorses. He earned his B.A. in Biology from the University of Colorado Boulder in 1992 and his Ph.D. in Genetics from the University of Georgia in 1998. His lab has pioneered work on genome assembly of syngnathid species and investigates topics such as microbiome dynamics, mating systems, and the evolutionary genetics of brood pouch development. He has secured NSF grants for projects like 'The Genomics of Sexual Selection in Pipefishes and Seahorses' and co-leads the Evo-Devo of male pregnancy microbiome studies. Notable students include Sarah Flanagan (now at University of Canterbury) and Emily Rose (University of Tampa). His lab moved from Texas A&M to the University of Idaho in 2013 to pursue new research opportunities in the Palouse region. Research interests span evolutionary innovations, sexual selection mechanisms, and the impact of environmental factors like synthetic estrogens on reproductive biology. He has authored over 100 peer-reviewed publications, including foundational work on male pregnancy genetics and the role of Bateman's principles in mating system analysis. His lab actively collaborates with institutions like the University of Oregon (Cresko Lab) and employs cutting-edge genomic techniques, including PacBio and Hi-C sequencing. Recent efforts emphasize assembling complete genomes for syngnathid lineages to understand evolutionary adaptations. Grants and funding support projects on microbiome evolution, sexual selection dynamics, and genomic approaches to studying mating systems. The Jones Lab also develops computational tools for parentage analysis, such as GERUD and BATEMANATER software. Future work includes expanding genomic resources for syngnathids and exploring the implications of climate change on sexual selection intensity in cold-water pipefishes.
