摘要

在广泛的种群中，短串联DNA重复序列提供的大量数量变异可以促进对当地环境条件的有效适应。这些重复序列所特有的位点特异性可变性为群体提供了自适应调节数量性状值的功能调节旋钮。

Tandem repeat polymorphisms shape local adaptation.

Within widespread populations, efficient adaptation to local environmental conditions can be facilitated by abundant quantitative variation supplied by short tandem DNA repeats. The peculiar site-specific mutability of such repeats can provide populations with the functional equivalent of tuning knobs for adaptively adjusting quantitative trait values.

期刊介绍： Trends in Ecology & Evolution (TREE) is a comprehensive journal featuring polished, concise, and readable reviews, opinions, and letters in all areas of ecology and evolutionary science. Catering to researchers, lecturers, teachers, field workers, and students, it serves as a valuable source of information. The journal keeps scientists informed about new developments and ideas across the spectrum of ecology and evolutionary biology, spanning from pure to applied and molecular to global perspectives. In the face of global environmental change, Trends in Ecology & Evolution plays a crucial role in covering all significant issues concerning organisms and their environments, making it a major forum for life scientists.
