The Orcuttiinae subtribe of the grass tribe Cynodonteae (Poaceae) represents an ancient and unique group of amphibious grasses adapted to the winter-wet, summer-dry conditions of seasonally flooded vernal pools. The subtribe consists of nin...
Gene Expression Differentiation Is Consistent with Local Adaptation across an Elevational Gradient in Drummond's Rockcress (Boechera stricta) [0.03%]
基因表达分化与鼓岭拟岩黄耆（Boechera strict）在海拔梯度上的局部适应一致
Shelby L Tisinai,Jill T Anderson,Derek A Denney et al.
Shelby L Tisinai et al.
A central goal of evolutionary biology is to understand the mechanisms conferring adaptation. Gene expression is sensitive to environmental variability; thus, investigating gene expression differentiation among populations may reveal signat...
A genome assembly for mule deer, Odocoileus hemionus, from southern California [0.03%]
