Adaptive Evolution of Gene Expression in Drosophila

Adaptive Evolution of Gene Expression in Drosophila

Gene expression levels are important quantitative traits that link genotypes to molecular functions and fitness. In Drosophila, population-genetic studies have revealed substantial adaptive evolution at the genomic level, but the evolutionary modes of gene expression remain controversial. Here, we p...
