Combining experimental evolution with next-generation sequencing: a powerful tool to study adaptation from standing genetic variation.

abstract：:Assessing in wild populations how fitness is impacted by inbreeding and genetic drift is a major goal for conservation biology. An approach to measure the detrimental effects of inbreeding on fitness is to estimate correlations between molecular variation and phenotypic performances within and among populations. Our s...
