Population genomics of an icefish reveals mechanisms of glacier-driven adaptive radiation in Antarctic notothenioids

Abstract Background Antarctica harbors the bulk of the species diversity of the dominant teleost fish suborder—Notothenioidei. However, the forces that shape their evolution are still under debate. Results We sequenced the genome of an icefish, Chionodraco hamatus, and used population genomics and d...
