Evolution at two time frames: Polymorphisms from an ancient singular divergence event fuel contemporary parallel evolution.
When environments change, populations may adapt surprisingly fast, repeatedly and even at microgeographic scales. There is increasing evidence that such cases of rapid parallel evolution are fueled by standing genetic variation, but the source of this genetic variation remains poorly understood. In...
