This material relates to a paper that appeared in the Dec. 9, 2016, issue of Science, published by AAAS. The paper, by N.M. Reid at University of California, Davis in Davis, Calif., and colleagues was titled, "The genomic landscape of rapid repeated evolutionary adaptation to toxic pollution in wild fish." view more
