Demographic decline and lineage-specific adaptations characterize New Zealand kiwi.

Proceedings. Biological sciences - 22 Dec 2021

Abstract excerpt

Small and fragmented populations may become rapidly differentiated due to genetic drift, making it difficult to distinguish whether neutral genetic structure is a signature of recent demographic events, or of long-term evolutionary processes that could have allowed populations to adaptively diverge. We sequenced 52 whole genomes to examine Holocene demographic history and patterns of adaptation in kiwi (Apteryx),...
