Effects of evolutionary history on genome wide and phenotypic convergence in Drosophila populations

Abstract Background Studies combining experimental evolution and next-generation sequencing have found that adaptation in sexually reproducing populations is primarily fueled by standing genetic variation. Consequently, the response to selection is rapid and highly repeatable across replicate popula...
