Many prior signals of polygenic adaptation on human height do not replicate in the UK Biobank.

Polygenic selection signals in humans estimated from previously existing GWAS should be viewed with caution due to concerns about residual population stratification.

A shift in fitness optimum of a polygenic trait rapidly introduces small frequency differences between alleles with effects aligned with and opposing the shift, which gradually translate into small differences in fixation probability.

Baltic and Arctic ecotypes of the marine midge Clunio emerged from a recent adaptive radiation, which is based on standing genetic variation at many loci involved in time-keeping and nervous system development.

A combination of composite-likelihood and gene network-based methods to investigate the impact of Denisovan introgression on the evolution of complex (i.e., polygenic) adaptive traits in high-altitude populations of Tibetan/Sherpa ancestry.

Genome sequencing of mice selected for longer limbs reveals that rapid selection response is due to both discrete loci and polygenic adaptation.

Hundreds of loci underlying ecological adaptation to different environmental conditions show striking differences in allele frequencies between ecotypes of Atlantic herring.

Adaptation of domesticated maize and its wild relative teosinte has been facilitated by the geographically widespread exchange of beneficial alleles between them.

Neolithic was a turning point for immune responses in Europeans, favoring tolerance against intracellular pathogens, promoting inflammation against extracellular microbes, and being related to current auto-immune diseases.

Seasonal selection is a general feature of Drosophila melanogaster genetic variation, occurring in North American and European populations and affecting large proportions of the genome.
