Polygenic adaptation: a unifying framework to understand positive selection
Most adaption processes have a polygenic genetic basis, but even with the recent explosive
growth of genomic data we are still lacking a unified framework describing the dynamics of …

[HTML][HTML] Evolutionary insights into the nature of plant domestication
MD Purugganan - Current Biology, 2019 - cell.com
Domestication is a co-evolutionary process that occurs when wild plants are brought into
cultivation by humans, leading to origin of new species and/or differentiated populations that …

Divergence time shapes gene reuse during repeated adaptation
M Bohutínská, CL Peichel - Trends in ecology & evolution, 2024 - cell.com
When diverse lineages repeatedly adapt to similar environmental challenges, the extent to
which the same genes are involved (gene reuse) varies across systems. We propose that …
