Abstract excerpt
The importance of structural variation in adaptation and speciation is becoming increasingly evident in the literature. Among SVs, copy number variants (CNVs) are known to affect phenotypes through changes in gene expression and can potentially reduce recombination between alleles with different copy numbers. However, little is known about their abundance, distribution and frequency in natural populations. In a...
