Description
Summary:A growing number of studies are examining the factors driving historical and contemporary evolution in wild populations. By combining surveys of genomic variation with a comprehensive assessment of environmental parameters, such studies can increase our understanding of the genomic and geographical extent of local adaptation in wild populations. We utilized a large-scale landscape genomics approach to examine adaptive and neutral differentiation across 54 North American populations of Atlantic salmon representing seven previously defined genetically distinct regional groups. Over 5500 genome-wide SNPs were genotyped in 641 individuals and 28 bulk assays of 25 pooled individuals each. Genome scans, linkage map and 49 environmental variables were combined to conduct an innovative landscape genomic analysis. Our results provide valuable insight into the links between environmental variation and both neutral and potentially adaptive genetic divergence. In particular, we identified markers potentially under ... : Bourret_genotypesGenotype table for 640 individuals and 3118 snp markers retained in final analyses.Bourret_env_and_pca_factorsEnvironmental data used in the principal component analysis and 10 pca factors values obtained and used in the redundancy analysis.Bourret_geological_data_detailsTable of geological data ...
