Abstract excerpt
The threespine stickleback (Gasterosteus aculeatus) is a key model in evolutionary genetics, particularly for studies of parallel evolution, yet most genomic insights derive from populations on the west coast of North America and in Europe. Here, we use restriction site-associated DNA sequencing (RAD-seq) of pooled samples to examine genomic differentiation between marine and freshwater stickleback populations...
