Parallel adaptive evolution of geographically distant herring populations on both sides of the North Atlantic Ocean [Genetics]

Atlantic herring is an excellent species for studying the genetic basis of adaptation in geographically distant populations because of its characteristically large population sizes and low genetic drift. In this study we compared whole-genome resequencing data of Atlantic herring populations from both sides of the Atlantic Ocean. An important finding...
