Genome divergence during evolutionary diversification as revealed in replicate lake-stream stickleback population pairs.

Abstract excerpt

Evolutionary diversification is often initiated by adaptive divergence between populations occupying ecologically distinct environments while still exchanging genes. The genetic foundations of this divergence process are largely unknown and are here explored through genome scans in multiple independent lake-stream population pairs of threespine stickleback. We find that across the pairs, overall genomic...
