Abstract excerpt
One of the longstanding debates in evolutionary biology is the effect of fluctuating selection on genetic changes in populations. However, the extent to which these periodic forces influence organisms at both genomic and phenotypic levels remains unclear. Despite the compelling evidence of fluctuating selection from recent studies, there is a disconnect between empirical and theoretical findings concerning the...
