Finding the genomic basis of local adaptation: pitfalls, practical solutions, and future directions
Uncovering the genetic and evolutionary basis of local adaptation is a major focus of
evolutionary biology. The recent development of cost-effective methods for obtaining high-quality …

Evaluation of demographic history and neutral parameterization on the performance of FST outlier tests
KE Lotterhos, MC Whitlock - Molecular ecology, 2014 - Wiley Online Library
F ST outlier tests are a potentially powerful way to detect genetic loci under spatially divergent
selection. Unfortunately, the extent to which these tests are robust to nonequilibrium …

The relative power of genome scans to detect local adaptation depends on sampling design and statistical method
KE Lotterhos, MC Whitlock - Molecular ecology, 2015 - Wiley Online Library
Although genome scans have become a popular approach towards understanding the
genetic basis of local adaptation, the field still does not have a firm grasp on how sampling …

Reliable Detection of Loci Responsible for Local Adaptation: Inference of a Null Model through Trimming the Distribution of FST
MC Whitlock, KE Lotterhos - The American Naturalist, 2015 - journals.uchicago.edu
Loci responsible for local adaptation are likely to have more genetic differentiation among
populations than neutral loci. However, neutral loci can vary widely in their amount of genetic …

Breaking RAD: An evaluation of the utility of restriction site‐associated DNA sequencing for genome scans of adaptation
Understanding how and why populations evolve is of fundamental importance to molecular
ecology. Restriction site‐associated DNA sequencing ( RAD seq), a popular reduced …

The paradox of adaptive trait clines with nonclinal patterns in the underlying genes
KE Lotterhos - Proceedings of the National Academy of …, 2023 - National Acad Sciences
Multivariate climate change presents an urgent need to understand how species adapt to
complex environments. Population genetic theory predicts that loci under selection will form …

Convergent local adaptation to climate in distantly related conifers
When confronted with an adaptive challenge, such as extreme temperature, closely related
species frequently evolve similar phenotypes using the same genes. Although such repeated …

Inversion invasions: when the genetic basis of local adaptation is concentrated within inversions in the face of gene flow
…, BC Haller, KE Lotterhos - … Transactions of the …, 2022 - royalsocietypublishing.org
Across many species where inversions have been implicated in local adaptation, genomes
often evolve to contain multiple, large inversions that arise early in divergence. Why this …
