Genomic signatures of local directional selection in a high gene flow marine organism; the Atlantic cod (Gadus morhua)

Genomic signatures of local directional selection in a high gene flow marine organism; the Atlantic cod (Gadus morhua)

<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>Marine fishes have been shown to display low levels of genetic structuring and associated high levels of gene flow, suggesting shallow evolutionary trajectories and, possibly, limited or lacking adaptive divergence among local popula...
