Whole genome sequencing reveals how plasticity and genetic differentiation underlie sympatric morphs of Arctic charr.
Now published in Molecular Ecology Whole genome sequencing reveals how plasticity and genetic differentiation underlie sympatric morphs of Arctic charr. https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/mec.70085 ABSTRACT Salmonids have a remarkable ability to form sympatric morphs after postglacial colonisation of freshwater lakes. These morphs often … Continue reading
