Genomic and eco-geographic features of locally adapted inversions in wild sunflowers
Chromosomal inversions are increasingly recognized as important drivers of local adaptation and ecological divergence because they suppress recombination and maintain adaptive allele combinations despite ongoing gene flow. However, the eco-evolutionary conditions favouring the establishment of such indirectly adaptive inversions, as well as the genomic features that distinguish them from other…
