Abstract excerpt
Parallel evolution and the extent to which it involves gene reuse have attracted much interest. Whereas it has theoretically been predicted under which circumstances gene reuse is expected, empirical studies that directly compare systems showing high and low parallelism are rare. Three-spined stickleback (Gasterosteus aculeatus), where freshwater populations have been independently founded by ancestral marine...
