Parallel genomic responses to historical climate change and high elevation in East Asian songbirds

Extreme environments present profound physiological stress. The adaptation of closely related species to these environments is likely to invoke congruent genetic responses resulting in similar physiological and/or morphological adaptations, a process termed “parallel evolution” (1). Existing evidence shows that parallel evolution is more common at the phenotypic level than at…
