Detecting adaptive trait loci in nonmodel systems: divergence or admixture mapping?
Molecular ecology - 1 Dec 2013
Crawford Jacob E, Nielsen Rasmus
Abstract excerpt
Mapping adaptive trait loci (ATL) underlying ecological divergence is an essential step towards understanding the processes that generate phenotypic diversity. Technological advances have made it possible to sequence exomes in nonmodel systems, providing an efficient means of analysing functional genetic variants. Divergence scans of genetic markers for outlier loci, or 'divergence mapping', have been used to map...
