Signals of local adaptation have been found in many plants and animals, highlighting the
heterogeneity in the distribution of adaptive genetic variation throughout species ranges. In …

Uncovering the genetic and evolutionary basis of local adaptation is a major focus of
evolutionary biology. The recent development of cost-effective methods for obtaining high …

Although vast technological advances have been made and genetic software packages are
growing in number, it is not a trivial task to analyse SNP data. We announce a new r …

The rapidly emerging field of macrogenetics focuses on analysing publicly accessible
genetic datasets from thousands of species to explore large-scale patterns and predictors of …

Identifying adaptive loci can provide insight into the mechanisms underlying local
adaptation. Genotype–environment association (GEA) methods, which identify these loci …

The r package pcadapt performs genome scans to detect genes under selection based on
population genomic data. It assumes that candidate markers are outliers with respect to how …

Landscape genomics is an emerging research field that aims to identify the environmental
factors that shape adaptive genetic variation and the gene variants that drive local …

Natural history collections are invaluable repositories of biological information that provide
an unrivaled record of Earth's biodiversity. Museum genomics—genomics research using …

Loci responsible for local adaptation are likely to have more genetic differentiation among
populations than neutral loci. However, neutral loci can vary widely in their amount of …

Rapid global climate change is posing a substantial threat to biodiversity. The assessment of
population vulnerability and adaptive capacity under climate change is crucial for informing …
