Temporal genomic contrasts reveal rapid evolutionary responses in an alpine mammal during recent climate change.

Many species have experienced dramatic changes in their abundance and distribution during recent climate change, but it is often unclear whether such ecological responses are accompanied by evolutionary change. We used targeted exon sequencing of 294 museum specimens (160 historic, 134 modern) to ge...
