The three-spined stickleback (Gasterosteus aculeatus) is an important model system for the
study of parallel evolution in the wild, having repeatedly colonized and adapted to …

Parallel evolution and the extent to which it involves gene reuse have attracted much
interest. Whereas it has theoretically been predicted under which circumstances gene reuse …

Three‐spined sticklebacks (Gasterosteus aculeatus) are a powerful evolutionary model
system due to the rapid and repeated phenotypic divergence of freshwater forms from a …

Heterogeneous genomic divergence between populations may reflect selection, but should
also be seen in conjunction with gene flow and drift, particularly population bottlenecks …

Next-generation sequencing technology provides novel opportunities for gathering genome-
scale sequence data in natural populations, laying the empirical foundation for the evolving …

Since the end of the Pleistocene, the three‐spined stickleback (Gasterosteus aculeatus) has
repeatedly colonized and adapted to various freshwater habitats probably originating from …

Examples of parallel evolution of phenotypic traits have been repeatedly demonstrated in
threespine sticklebacks (Gasterosteus aculeatus) across their global distribution. Using …

Population genomic studies are beginning to provide a more comprehensive view of
dynamic genome-scale processes in evolution. Patterns of genomic architecture, such as …

Genes underlying repeated adaptive evolution in natural populations are still largely
unknown. Stickleback fish (Gasterosteus aculeatus) have undergone a recent dramatic …

Chromosomal fusions are hypothesized to facilitate adaptation to divergent environments,
both by bringing together previously unlinked adaptive alleles and by creating regions of low …
