On the maintenance of genetic variation and adaptation to environmental change: considerations from population genomics in fishes
L Bernatchez - Journal of Fish Biology, 2016 - Wiley Online Library
The first goal of this paper was to overview modern approaches to local adaptation, with a
focus on the use of population genomics data to detect signals of natural selection in fishes …
