Gene abundance linked to climate zone: Parallel evolution of gene content along elevation gradients in lichenized fungi

Gene abundance linked to climate zone: Parallel evolution of gene content along elevation gradients in lichenized fungi

IntroductionIntraspecific genomic variability affects a species’ adaptive potential toward climatic conditions. Variation in gene content across populations and environments may point at genomic adaptations to specific environments. The lichen symbiosis, a stable association of fungal and photobiont...
