Gene Tree Discordance Can Generate Patterns of Diminishing Convergence over Time.

Molecular biology and evolution - 1 Dec 2016

Mendes Fábio K, Hahn Yoonsoo, Hahn Matthew W

Abstract excerpt

Phenotypic convergence is an exciting outcome of adaptive evolution, occurring when different species find similar solutions to the same problem. Unraveling the molecular basis of convergence provides a way to link genotype to adaptive phenotypes, but can also shed light on the extent to which molecular evolution is repeatable and predictable. Many recent genome-wide studies have uncovered a striking pattern of...
