How do gene expression and regulation evolve during adaptation? And how can we tell adaptive shifts apart from simple drift?

Coordinated shifts in gene expression and regulation during mole-rat evolution
Changes in gene expression and regulation are central to mammalian phenotypic evolution. Yet, distinguishing adaptive gene expression shifts from neutral divergence remains challenging. Here, we integ...
