Recent natural selection causes adaptive evolution of an avian polygenic trait
We use extensive data from a long-term study of great tits (Parus major) in the UK and Netherlands to better understand how genetic signatures of selection translate into variation in fitness and phenotypes. We found that genomic regions under differential selection contained candidate genes for...
