Genomic signatures of adaptation along an expansion route in the colonizing plant Leontodon longirostris (Asteraceae).

Abstract excerpt

Species' range shifts are common in nature, often involving the colonization of new habitats. Identifying the evolutionary processes responsible for the colonization of novel environments is then fundamental to understanding the current distribution of organisms and predicting responses to ongoing global change. Leontodon longirostris is a short-lived plant native of the Western Mediterranean Basin that expanded...
