Adaptive introgression and standing genetic variation, two facilitators of adaptation to high latitudes in European aspen (Populus tremulaL.)

Abstract: Understanding local adaptation in plants from a genomic perspective has become a key research area given the ongoing climate challenge and the concomitant requirement to conserve genetic resources. Perennial plants, such as forest trees, are good models to study local adaptation given their wide geographic distribution, largely outcrossing mating systems and demographic histories. We evaluated signatures of local adaptation in European aspen (Populus tremula) across Europe by means of whole genome re-sequencin… Show more

“…For example, in spatially and temporally varying habitats, gene flow augments standing genetic variation and thus increases local adaptation (Blanquart et al, 2012(Blanquart et al, , 2013. Local adaptation can also occur in the presence of gene flow through adaptive introgression and strong selection against the immigrant alleles (Griffiths et al, 2021;Leroy et al, 2020;Rendón-Anaya et al, 2021).…”
