The probability of genetic parallelism and convergence in natural populations.

Proceedings. Biological sciences - 22 Dec 2012

Conte Gina L, Arnegard Matthew E, Peichel Catherine L, Schluter Dolph

Abstract excerpt

Genomic and genetic methods allow investigation of how frequently the same genes are used by different populations during adaptive evolution, yielding insights into the predictability of evolution at the genetic level. We estimated the probability of gene reuse in parallel and convergent phenotypic evolution in nature using data from published studies. The estimates are surprisingly high, with mean probabilities...
