The genetic basis for ecological adaptation of the Atlantic herring revealed by genome sequencing

The genetic basis for ecological adaptation of the Atlantic herring revealed by genome sequencing

Ecological adaptation is of major relevance to speciation and sustainable population management, but the underlying genetic factors are typically hard to study in natural populations due to genetic differentiation caused by natural selection being confounded with genetic drift in subdivided populati...
