Cis-regulatory evolution spotlights species differences in the adaptive potential of gene expression plasticity
Plasticity allows organisms to respond to environmental change. Here the authors compare the distribution of cis-regulatory variants in the transcriptomes of Arabidopsis lyrata and A. halleriafter exposure to stress, to trace the role of polygenic selection in the evolution of gene expression plasti...
