Selective sweeps on novel and introgressed variation shape mimicry loci in a butterfly adaptive radiation.
Natural selection leaves distinct signatures in the genome that can reveal the targets and history of adaptive evolution. By analysing high-coverage genome sequence data from 4 major colour pattern loci sampled from nearly 600 individuals in 53 populations, we show pervasive selection on wing patter...
