Using genomic tools to understand species differentiation and admixture in hares and mice
The present thesis has contributed, using high throughput genome sequencing, to understanding the history of divergence leading to speciation, and the causes and consequences of genetic exchanges between species, in hares and mice.First, this work has contributed to the development of the genomic re...
