Genomic rearrangements and the evolution of clusters of locally adaptive loci

S Yeaman - Proceedings of the National Academy of …, 2013 - National Acad Sciences
Numerous studies of ecological genetics have found that alleles contributing to local
adaptation sometimes cluster together, forming “genomic islands of divergence.” Divergence …
