Selection at a genomic region of major effect is responsible for evolution of complex life histories in anadromous steelhead

Abstract Background Disparity in the timing of biological events occurs across a variety of systems, yet the understanding of genetic basis underlying diverse phenologies remains limited. Variation in maturation timing occurs in steelhead trout, which has been associated with greb1L, an oestrogen ta...
