Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms, Structural Variants, and Short Tandem Repeats Capture Distinct Signals of Adaptive Divergence in the Atlantic Puffin.

Abstract excerpt

The Arctic has been the scene for (re)colonization, diversification, and adaptation of boreal and Arctic fauna. As anthropogenic warming of the Arctic environment increases the extinction risk for peripheral populations, understanding patterns of local adaptation is imperative. The Atlantic puffin (Fratercula arctica) comprises multiple genetically and morphologically distinct populations with an Arctic-boreal...
