Pleiotropy increases parallel selection signatures during adaptation from standing genetic variation

Pleiotropy increases parallel selection signatures during adaptation from standing genetic variation

The phenomenon of parallel evolution, whereby similar genomic and phenotypic changes occur across replicated pairs of populations or species, is widely studied. Nevertheless, the determining factors of parallel evolution remain poorly understood. Theoretical studies have proposed that pleiotropy, th...
