Extensive Adaptive Variation in Gene Expression within and between Closely Related Horseshoe Bats (Chiroptera, <i>Rhinolophus</i>) Revealed by Three Organs

Extensive Adaptive Variation in Gene Expression within and between Closely Related Horseshoe Bats (Chiroptera, <i>Rhinolophus</i>) Revealed by Three Organs

In the process of species differentiation and adaption, the relative influence of natural selection on gene expression variation often remains unclear (especially its impact on phenotypic divergence). In this study, we used differentially expressed genes from brain, cochlea, and liver samples collec...
