Abstract excerpt

A central goal of population genomics is to unveil the evolutionary forces driving genomic divergence. Although genomic islands have been extensively studied in angiosperms, the patterns of genomic divergence remain poorly understood in gymnosperms. Here, by re-sequencing the whole genome of 130 individuals of Welwitschia mirabilis, we reveal significant genomic differentiation among its geographically close...
