The genetic architecture of adaptation under migration-selection balance.

Evolution; international journal of organic evolution - 1 Jul 2011

Yeaman Sam, Whitlock Michael C

Abstract excerpt

Many ecologically important traits have a complex genetic basis, with the potential for mutations at many different genes to shape the phenotype. Even so, studies of local adaptation in heterogeneous environments sometimes find that just a few quantitative trait loci (QTL) of large effect can explain a large percentage of observed differences between phenotypically divergent populations. As high levels of gene...
