Genome‐scan methods are used for screening genomewide patterns of DNA polymorphism
to detect signatures of positive selection. There are two main types of methods:(i)'outlier' …

Detecting genetic variants under selection using FST outlier analysis (OA) and
environmental association analyses (EAAs) are popular approaches that provide insight into …

Population differentiation (PD) and ecological association (EA) tests have recently emerged
as prominent statistical methods to investigate signatures of local adaptation using …

The identification of signatures of natural selection in genomic surveys has become an area
of intense research, stimulated by the increasing ease with which genetic markers can be …

Thanks to genome‐scale diversity data, present‐day studies can provide a detailed view of
how natural and cultivated species adapt to their environment and particularly to …

Genomic scans of multiple populations often reveal marker loci with greatly increased
differentiation between populations. Often this differentiation coincides in space with …

Loci involved in local adaptation can potentially be identified by an unusual correlation
between allele frequencies and important ecological variables or by extreme allele …

Finding genetic signatures of local adaptation is of great interest for many population genetic
studies. Common approaches to sorting selective loci from their genomic background focus …

There is a considerable impetus in population genomics to pinpoint loci involved in local
adaptation. A powerful approach to find genomic regions subject to local adaptation is to …

Comparing allele frequencies among populations that differ in environment has long been a
tool for detecting loci involved in local adaptation. However, such analyses are complicated …
