Selective Sweeps Lead to Evolutionary Success in an Amazonian Hyperdominant Palm
Despite the global importance of tropical ecosystems, few studies have identified how natural selection has shaped their megadiversity. Here, we test for the role of adaptation in the evolutionary success of the widespread, highly abundant Neotropical palm Mauritia flexuosa. We used a genome scan fr...
