In many species, genomic data have revealed pervasive adaptive evolution indicated by the
fixation of beneficial alleles. However, when selection pressures are highly variable along a …

Examples of clinal variation in phenotypes and genotypes across latitudinal transects have
served as important models for understanding how spatially varying selection and …

Most empirical investigations of the effects of cognitive skills assume that they are produced
by schooling. Drawing on longitudinal data to estimate production functions for adult verbal …

Finding the specific nucleotides that underlie adaptive variation is a major goal in
evolutionary biology, but polygenic traits pose a challenge because the complex genotype–phenotype …

Understanding the rate of evolutionary change and the genetic architecture that facilitates
rapid adaptation is a current challenge in evolutionary biology. Comparative studies show that …

Cuticular hydrocarbons (CHCs) are hydrophobic compounds deposited on the arthropod
cuticle that are of functional significance with respect to stress tolerance, social interactions and …

To advance our understanding of adaptation to temporally varying selection pressures, we
identified signatures of seasonal adaptation occurring in parallel among Drosophila …

Drosophila melanogaster is a leading model in population genetics and genomics, and a
growing number of whole-genome data sets from natural populations of this species have …

Cosmopolitan populations of Drosophila melanogaster have co-opted a form of reproductive
diapause to overwinter in northern populations. Polymorphism in the couch potato gene …

To advance our understanding of adaptation to temporally varying selection pressures, we
