Abstract

Which genome contributes most to patterns of adaptive trait divergence in Drosophila melanogaster across environmental clines? In this issue, Lasne etal. find that genetic variation associated with adaptive traits is mostly distributed between autosomal and mitochondrial genomes with a negligible contribution from the X chromosome.
